BlackBerry Storm
The first touch screen BlackBerry from Research in Motion. Introduced in 2008, the Storm's touch screen features RIM's SurePress technology that requires an actual depression of screen keys and icons rather than simply touching them. It is a dual-band phone that supports both CDMA and GSM carriers, including EV-DO (CDMA) and GPRS/HSDPA (GSM) data networks.
Specifications
The Storm comes with 1GB of internal storage expandable via an SD Card. Other features include GPS navigation, a 3.2 MP still and video camera with flash and zoom, organizer, a media player for all major audio and video formats, e-mail, text messaging, Web browser and Bluetooth. As of its first release, the Storm did not include Wi-Fi. See BlackBerry.
