Vodafone will be selling the BlackBerry Storm 2 (9520) across Europe by the end of October. It will be the first operator in the UK to launch the BlackBerry Storm 2.

The BlackBerry Storm 2 runs on BlackBerry OS version 5, which enhances its web browser and touch-screen capability. The new touch-screen technology called “SurePress” provides tacticle feedback to the user whenever the touch-screen is pressed.

The BlackBerry Storm 2 evolves the BlackBerry touch-screen platform with hundreds of hardware and software enhancements including a 3.25 inch high-resolution screen giving a great picture for multi-media playback and internet browsing.

The Blackberry Storm 2 also features a 3.2 mega-pixel camera with auto-focus, flash and video recording. It comes with 2GB of onboard memory, which is enough to store a vast number of photos or music tracks. If that isn’t enough for you the Storm2 supports up to 16GB of external memory through a microSD slot.

The new Storm 2 has a built-in media player supporting music, pictures and videos and a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack for plugging in your favourite headphones. It also has built-in GPS eradicating the need for your separate sat-nav system.
