CB forums have had 2 leaked pieces of information that point to the BlackBerry Storm 2 being launched by Verizon on October 28th. The first evidence of a 28th launch is an internal PDF with the date in it. The 2nd piece of evidence the above snapped photo of the Verizon intranet blog also showing the 28th.
While the Storm 2 was rumored to not have passed Verizon’s technical acceptance program right away, it seems all of this is over with and the device is coming. We’ll keep you updated on this as more details come forth.

Although it seems like an eternity, the BlackBerry Storm has only been for sale for almost a year. RIM went back and reworked with mechanics of their touch screen and cooked up a new(er) operating system.
Now, we at BlackBerryCool.com have gotten our hands on a pre-released 9550. Yes, the screen rebound is much better, thanks to the shortened travel distance, and we’re enjoying the more responsive keyboard. Both of these aspects have been significantly improved.
Instead of writing a review of a pre-release device, we’d like to know what burning questions you have about the device. We’ll work to answer them. Again, considering that this is a pre-release device, there are still bugs, quirks and gremlins clearly running wild.
So drop us a line on what you’d like to know and we’ll do our best to answer your questions!

There’s a rumor going around that Verizon will be announcing the BlackBerry Tour tomorrow with a release date. This could be in response to the fact that Sprint has officially confirmed the device, and Verizon doesn’t want to lose any customers switching for the device.
Currently, the sign up page for the device is live so if you register to get a preorder notice, they’ll surely email you tomorrow to confirm this rumor is true or not.
Cross your fingers!
