After RIM failed miserably with the original BlackBerry Storm, they came back stronger than ever with the Storm 2 for Verizon. Although it’s no iPhone 3GS, Nexus One or Droid, it’s still a lot better than what RIM originally envisioned.

In a review, CNET writes, “The RIM BlackBerry Storm 2 adds Wi-Fi, more memory, and an updated operating system that brings a number of feature and user interface enhancements. The revamped SurePress touch screen allows for more precision, key rollover, and limited multitouch capabilities.”

However, the “BlackBerry browser isn’t on par with the competition. While improved, the touch screen still takes some acclimation.”

In conclusion, “The RIM BlackBerry Storm 2 brings some welcome additions, such as Wi-Fi, updated software, and a better touch interface, but it’s going to face some serious competition from Verizon’s upcoming touch-screen smartphones.”
