So I just read an article (I will paste the link at bottom) about how the storm 3 release date was canceled and that it may not even be coming to verizon. It said it may be going to another carrier. I thought that verizon had made an agreement with RIM to keep the storm line only within verizon? Has anyone else heard anything about this??
BlackBerry Storm 3: Verizon Release Date Cancelled? : Product Reviews Net
You're days late on this... but most people are happy it didn't come out.
The release wasn't supposed to be till december 5th or so and the news on the cancelation was only like 3 days ago so i'm not that late lol! and not to many ppl were talking about it if that was the case because plenty of people are still drooling over the pics of it.... why waste their time now if its not officially coming out until god knows when!!
Trust me no one was drooling over it... it's a sub par device considering it's competition out there. You might be thinking of the leaked pictures of what looks like a possible storm. The Storm 3 that was canceled was a storm 2 body with upgraded internals.
The report was from last week. It was even posted here last week.
BlackBerry Storm 3 (9570) cancelled on Verizon?! | CrackBerry.com
So, this is old news (hence being told you're days late on reporting).
Yeah, basically just a small refresh so it can run OS6.
The OP is mistaking the S3 leaked out photos with the canceled 9570 device. When she said "drooling over it", she meant the S3 picture leak device, not the 9570 Odin Refresh.
I actually thought the Storm 3 was the 9570 lol
Good riddance.
Idunno... RIM could push out the 9570 as a midrange device like the Curve, then come out with the Storm 4G as a high end device with a bigger screen and LTE.
I doubt we will learn more until CTIA in Jan. There is another article saying there will be a storm 3 this year. Apparently that model does not have SurePress. And then there will be a 4G model about 4 to 6 months later. So who knows.
I am eyeing a Droid X on amazon for $99.

Seeing that the notice went out to developers that the 9570 has been completely canceled by RIM, I doubt there will be another Storm model out before the QNX version makes its way to market.
