Verizon's Blackberry Thunder renamed to Storm

We first learned of the Thunder a few months ago, which is said to be the ultimate Blackberry device featuring a full touchscreen. It now appears that the Verizon model will be called the Blackberry Storm 9530, with Rogers (Canada) and Vodafone (UK) keeping the original Thunder title. The retail box, which showed up on EngadgetMobile, shows that the Storm will come with an 8GB microSDHC memory card pre-installed, SIM Card (for GSM roaming), and will feature a 3.5mm headset jack. Rumors are placing it for an October release.
