We haven't even seen the BlackBerry Storm 2 introduced and already, there is talk of a Storm 3 being sold in the UK before Christmas. The Storm 3 is the model currently code-named "Mr.T" and is expected to offer a high-resolution touchscreen with a sliding landscape QWERTY keyboard. It apparently would be the answer for those 'Berry fans who like the Storm's capacitive touchscreen, but are not happy with the clicking SurePress virtual QWERTY now found on the device. Not much more is known about "Mr. T" for the moment, and in the States, Verizon is moving closer to the launch of the Storm 2. Business customers were supposed to be able to order the sequel model today, but a call to Verizon Wireless proved that to be incorrect. A broader launch of the device is expected on October 14th, but neither RIM nor Verizon has actually introduced the phone to the public yet.
