Verizon has been awfully quiet throughout the Storm2 announcement despite their big brother abroad, Vodafone, has been pretty open and even squeaked out an October 26 shipping date; luckily, Verizon won’t be far behind as their internal blog has announced an October 28th. launch date in the U.S. Dummy units have already been finding their way to Best Buy stores, so it seems like a safe bet. Anyone interested in picking one of these up as a Christmas present? For a closer look at the Storm2, check out this leaked data sheet, the online device emulator, or our very own hands-on review.

In exploring RIM’s platform, he has learned what enterprises are looking for in mobility as well as what makes the innocuous BlackBerry so appealing to them. Recently Simon’s been covering RIM’s gradual move into an already-crowded consumer market, and the impact of burgeoning challengers, such as the iPhone, as well as long-time leaders, like Nokia, on BlackBerry’s advancement.
With plenty of content under his belt, Simon will be branching off a bit to see what other smartphone manufacturers are working on while still using BlackBerry as a barometer. At IntoMobile, you can count on his posts being even-handed, well-informed and thought-out.
