The original BlackBerry Storm, though a massive departure from RIM's usual buttoned-up candybar smartphones, left many unhappy with the clicking touchscreen called SurePress. Well, after a lengthy batch of leaks, the BlackBerry Storm2 9550 (known as Odin, once upon a time) is on its way to Verizon, and presumably 02 and Vodafone across the pond. From what we've seen, the new and improved SurePress is based on a series of four sensors beneath the screen, as opposed to the single central pivot point on the original 9500. Being able to hit multiple keys on the virtual keyboard promises to improve typing speeds, and the inclusion of Wi-Fi is something that has been missing for a long time. Throw in a few stylistic changes, like rubberized buttons, and a new chrome trim, and you've got yourself an exciting sequel to a device that had previously failed to impress. So, does the Storm2 deliver?
