While a constant, continuous, and reliable production schedule is good for business, I’m not too sure Verizon and RIM’s latest drama entitles. Word in the ninja catacombs is that Verizon reps are or will be very soon starting on training for the upcoming Storm 2. Not even a year into the Storms debut and we are already talking about its more attractive sibling. Ouch. While technology is a fast paced market and hobby to get in to, that is still a fast product replacement even by Apple standards. According to the source, we could be physically staring down a Storm 2 as early as this month if all goes well and no later than June if not so well. Of course, the biggest news around the Storm 2 is the addition of WiFi, the apparent relocation of the 4 physical buttons onto the touchscreen part of the phone, and rumors of the clicky surepress getting kicked to the curb. Hopefully soon we’ll get some more concrete evidence as to get a better timeline together regarding a real release date. I just can’t believe that Verizon and RIM would outdate they greatly hyped device that is not even a year old. Eh, I’ve seen stranger things. Until then we’ll just have to make do with what little we know and all that our imaginations can create!
