Competition?

Can you write and install programs for this "Storm"?

If not, then the only competitor against the I-phone is the Google Android.

Uh, yes.. There are a huge number of applications for the Blackberry platform -- more than what is currently available for the iPhone and Android combined. They have a developer SDK available, and its been around for a while.. Unlike Apple which went for consumer markets first, and then tried to woo business customers, RIM has always been about business and enterprise needs -- and is just recently starting to make their devices more attractive to general consumers -- and doing a great job in doing so. There's a reason why Blackberry has the highest share of smartphone sales in the country -- by a big margin too (RIM has 41% of the US Smartphone market.. Apple has 28%). Worldwide, Nokia dominates with RIM in 2nd.

those marketshare numbers are far from impressive. Apple has one model with one carrier (and only for half this year) and yet can hit 65% of RIM's #'s across all carriers and with multiple models????
