BlackBerry Storm from Vodafone UK

Any Brits want to grab the BlackBerry Storm for free when it comes out? Yep, us too. Vodafone UK now has a notification page set up for RIM’s first touchscreen BlackBerry, so you can get e-mailed as soon as it’s for sale, and just for signing up, you’ve got a chance to win one for free. Vodafone UK joins their buddies in Germany and Verizon in the US. Still no hard and fast word on specs, but rumour has it the BlackBerry 9500 will have a 3.25” HVGA+ 480×360 multitouch screen, 3.2 megapixel camera, quad-band EDGE and tri-band HSDPA.
