The guys at Crackberry were able to get their hands on a 7 minute video featuring the BlackBerry Storm 2 9550 aka Odin. The reviewer has some good things to say about this version of the Storm. He calls the handset "fun" and says that typing is easy with the improved SurePress on the device. While this particular model was running EDGE over AT&T, the phone is heading to Verizon with Wi-Fi included, a 3.2MP camera with AF and a BlackBerry OS build beginning with the number 5. A launch date in October or November is expected although pricing remains unknown.

Again, we see that the SurePress clicking keyboard comes to a stop when the power is off. The reviewer says the 9550 is fast, even while running the dated OS on his device. So pop the corn, invite a date, sit back and watch a great flick for BlackBerry fans and Storm fans in particular.
