Someone in the United States has their hands on four BlackBerry Storm 2 devices and is listing them all on eBay.  Each one is going for $949 as a ‘Buy it Now’ with free shipping, making it the greatest deal ever (sarcasm).  The description says these devices were never used and sealed in the box as well.  Of course we cannot vouch for these people, but wanted to share the info with you incase anyone felt like spending a nice stack on a BlackBerry Storm 2 that will soon be available to us all at retail storefronts.

It looks like the BlackBerry Storm 2 9520 will be coming to Vodafone as they advertise on their site.  As the site is in the German language.  So what does it say?  We got the exact German to English translation below, powered by Google Translator:

“The BlackBerry Storm 9520 is a phone as you want it to. The smartphone is equipped with the latest generation of a new type of touch screen (about 8 cm diagonal) to make easy text entry. For entertainment on the go is also provided. Photos come out with the 3.2 MP camera, you can surf the Internet via WiFi and you can navigate with the A-GPS receiver.”
There’s no word on the release date, just a big tease to us all for now.  Stay tuned for more info as it leaks and releases.

Most celebrities have been seen with BlackBerry Curve or BlackBerry Bold devices.  The BlackBerry Storm seemed to not appeal Hollywood stars much, but it looks like Chris Brown wants to differentiate himself from others.  He must be running a leaked version of OS 5.0, some of you might think.  There is a huge possibility that he is not running any leaked OS, but is actually running the latest Verizon build that has been officially released.  We’d love to interview him and ask him about his experience just to find out how laggy or fast his BlackBerry Storm really is.  We all know that the Storm does not work well right out of the box and requires lots of tweaking.  Does Chris Brown have that knowledge?

It seems as though OS 5.0 has been quite the talk for the past few months as you can see on many blogs and forums.  Confidence in BlackBerry owners hasn’t been too high when it comes to installing BlackBerry OS 5.0 because it is leaked and many are in fear of getting a “BrickBerry” (bricking your BlackBerry) as an aftermath.  We just wanted to run a quick poll for the day to see how many of you are running OS 5.0, leaked OS other than 5.0, different carrier official OS, or your carrier’s official OS.  Continue reading to participate in the poll, and drop us a line below if you have anything else you’d like to add.  You must be on a Mac or PC to be able to vote properly.

Vodafone BlackBerry Storm side on 350

Most BlackBerry applications have genuine purpose and function to help assist you in your life.  We’ve seen utilities that put add-ons to your email capability and applications that enhance your overall BlackBerry experience.  The BlackBerry Storm 9500 and 9530 have motion sensors built in that I feel many haven’t used much.  Like the iPhone, BlackBerry devices can have fun too.  We put together a quick list of BlackBerry Storm applications that are just for fun use, plain and simple.  It’s these fun applications that need to stand out more as well to show that BlackBerry devices to can indeed be fun.  In this bundle of three, you’ll see fun applications such as ShaverBerry, Nickel Coin Toss, and BerrySimon.

Now you can play this classic pencil & paper game right on your BlackBerry! This fun game is easy to understand and enjoyable for all ages. Starting with an empty grid of dots, players take turns, adding a single horizontal or vertical line between two unjoined adjacent dots. A player who completes the fourth side of a box earns one point and takes another turn. The game ends when no more lines can be placed. The winner of the game is the player with the most points. All you have to do is click on the space between adjacent dots to add a line connecting them. Enjoy the fun graphics and unlimited number of move undos while you improve your skills against the computer or defeat your friend!

Everyone is hectic looking for the right leaked OS 5.0 all over the web and it can become a bit overwhelming.  We have went ahead and provided the download links for both Mac installs and PC installs for all the OS 5.0 leaks available out there so far.  It became very inconvenient that leaked OS versions were strictly .exe files and no one really got around to install them through Apple (Mac) systems.  Here are the latest updated links for OS 5.0 that will install via BlackBerry Desktop Manager for Mac. If any links come up inactive or not working, please drop us a comment below and we’ll make sure to get the updated link right away.
