Verizon Touch-screen Blackberry Storm for $199 starting Nov 21

Blackberry Storm will be available for $199.99 ($249.99 - $50 mail-in-rebate) from Verizon wireless on Nov 21. If it does indeed turn out to be as good a Blackberry as promised, expect more defections from Sprint which has no great device at the moment to compete with AT&T's iPhone, Verizon's Blackberry Storm and T-Mobile's G1 Google phone. Sprint Instinct is a poorly performing device and HTC Touch Diamond and Pro have signature Windows mobile issues despite a decent UI skin created by HTC.

Your #1 source of Samsung Instinct(TM) related news, tips and tricks with coverage of competing devices.

You really need to change this bit, since it doesn't seem to apply anymore.

Perhaps something like "occasional news about the Instinct, lots of complaining about it and Sprint, plus news about competing devices."

Thanks for the suggestion. In a fast changing mobile device world, Sprint Instinct is no longer a "latest and greatest device" and doesn't have as much going for it (except for the upcoming Java Keyboard update) compared to some other devices and therefore there is lesser coverage. If you have any news tips, feel free to post in comments and I will cover them. I will certainly change the description to reflect the lesser coverage. However, you can still search the blog for useful information that has already been posted.
