- FubazCrackBerry's Sour GrapeSorry River, the Storm 2 doesn't have a display out.
How ever in reference to what eclipse has said, you can connect your BlackBerry to your computer and use your BBs internet on your laptop in a practice called "tethering"
You storm would act like a modem while tethering

I love that it's smaller than the iCan't, but has a 1024 screen for some potentially awesome looking video playback and web surfing, to name just 2 functions.09-27-10 06:49 PMLike 0

to tell the truth, if I get one, I wouldn't likely be carrying it with me everywhere, but I think it would be useful despite not being ultra-portable like a normal-sized cell phone. I believe the Samsung Tab and the Playbook are going to be selling in decent numbers.Last edited by dave1812; 09-27-10 at 06:59 PM.

But it has nothing to do with me or you. The OP clearly says "my LAPTOP." NOT some other device. Don't get mad at me because you're going off on a tangent.09-27-10 08:14 PMLike 0 - 09-27-10 09:30 PMLike 0

Ok the subject at hand, another product I have found to do this is Bayalink Liberty, which offers a free 30 day trial, and is a VERY interesting product. Basically it lets you sorta tether, or use your Berry thru your PC, but closer to what Redfly does than what the Tether app does, but you use your PC rather than buy the Redfly terminal, and you just pay for the app.

Here's the answer to the OPs question: NO. Is that better?
