Default What news is Sal referring to?

Via Salomondrin's twitter:

"Nice 2 share new info about the Stormy 3 Like the trackpad, HDMI out, and the high res screen. If u don't believe me ur ***** will shrink"

lol about that last line, but anyway...

Is this out in any articles or is this breaking news?

Sal is generally a good source of news. He is generally correct as well.



This is very discouraging to me however as I am not VZW.

yup! I know he is right... the only thing I'm worried about is the timing... I hope it doesn't take until May or later for any of these devices to drop

I'm guessing the LTE storm will be announced at CES and is available by March, LTE Tour3 touch will be announced at Blackberry World and launches later. QNX Torch and something else may be announced at Blackberry World, or later.

Really hope you are right about the LTE storm and CES!!
I feel like more people have hinted that a new BB will be shown at CES for VZW... and that it would be the S3.

Trackpad reference - wonder if it's going to be this.

Storm 3 pics??

And if that one doesn't post correctly I give up, way to damn tired to figure it out.

can't view that link... but I assume you are referring to the image posted a while ago of the device with the "m" sticker covering what could be a front facing camera, and the trackpad on a, what looks like, a full touchscreen phone.

Yeah, apparently I can't find a working link, but did find the thread.

I would guess that's exactly what it is...we may have been "treated" quite a while ago to the actual device and didn't know it. I can live with it, just was hoping for a 4" screen!

i wonder if surepress will be part of the storm 3?

I know its a hate it or love it thing, but I think it is brilliant. And if they improved upon from the storm 2's version it will be kick-***.

Iono typing on a flat screen just feels weird.. especially when I'm typing a full blown email.

the surepress is the best thing to ever happen to touchscreens its the bread and butter of the storm series and if the storm 3 comes without it ill be surely angry and probly desert the storm serise all together but i love my S2 unlike most
