The other day we pointed out BlackBerry.com and how they were currently pushing out their new motto and Storm picture with the U2 band on the screen.  We suggested that the BlackBerry Storm 2 would be coming to the official site within the next few days, and two days later we see it happen.  Above you can see the sexy stock image RIM has put out for the device.  On BlackBerry.com you can find all the official specs and features of Storm2, which is going to be the officially traded name of it as it shows.

Got hot wheels?  You might think so, but it takes more than the car owner to determine that off of self-made judgements.  So you’ve already got a sweet ride, or you might think so.  Now you can measure the sweetness yourself through this awesome application right on the BlackBerry Storm.  DynoStorm uses the BlackBerry® Storm™ built-in accelerometer to measure your vehicle s 0-60 acceleration, quarter-mile elapsed time, estimated horsepower, lateral G’s, and several other performance metrics. A history of test results for your car is saved, so averages and trends can be reviewed. DynoStorm will also export high-resolution graphs, which can them be viewed and sent from your BlackBerry Storm device.

In best hopes, you all won’t use this program in reality to sweep a girl off her feet.  I see this program more as an entertainment application than a practical one to be honest.  It’s really funny to see the lines it comes up with as you can see one of the fine examples above.  So who’s this application for?  It’s great for anyone who wants to have some laughs over some cheesey humor.  For only $1.99, you can have this application on your BlackBerry.  Currently it is compatible with every BlackBerry from OS 4.2 to 4.7.

We mentioned earlier today about AT&T bringing out some stock images on their Facebook page of the BlackBerry Bold 9000 in white.  It looks like SK Telecom is getting the same white treatment in Korea as they are also getting the same device in the same white color.  Continue reading to check out the full press release by RIM.

Got a BlackBerry Storm 2 9520 by any chance? Sure the device isn’t out, but you might be one of many who got lucky rockin’ the device before Verizon and Vodafone’s release dates.  In that case, we got OS 5.0.0.287 leaked that you can download right to your Storm 2.  This is not compatible with the 9550 or any other Storm so keep in mind that you will need the 9520 Storm 2 in order to install this successfully.

Maybe we aren’t so far from seeing the BlackBerry Bold 9700 as we’re starting to see leaks for the operating systems already.  Many get concerned with bugs and issues with the out of box OS, but it looks like we’re not going to have these problems as new operating systems for the device are starting to release way before the device is even out.  This is the BlackBerry Bold 9700 leaked OS version 5.0.0.296.  If you have your hands on one, you can download and install this build to your device.

In celebration of the new Windows 7 operating system that freed many Windows Vista slaves who were occupied by that OS for years and years, we have decided to share with you all a hot theme based on the new one.  The Windows 7 theme for the BlackBerry Tour 96xx has a lot of shine and glamour to it just like the operating system itself.  The icons are all from it as well, but gets emulated into a theme, and right into the palm of your hands on a Tour screen.  Special thanks to CeeJaylx for providing this great theme.
