Blackberry Storm Reviews

SlashGear reviews the Blackberry Storm and writes;

“I’m sad to say that the Storm now rates at 2 out 5 gears. Since RIM is on top of things and working on fixes for these issues, I’ll revisit the rating in the future. That being said, I cannot in good conscience recommend the Storm as it currently stands.”

Rating: ★★☆☆☆

DigitalTrends reviews the Blackberry Storm and writes;

Rating: ★★★½☆

CNET.au reviews the Blackberry Storm and writes;
