The BlackBerry Storm will launch with the BlackBerry Facebook application, which will essentially let you use your Facebook account on your BlackBerry (with a few limitations). You can learn more about that here:

Ok, thanks. I've read several articles and reviews abt the Storm and most of them mention you will recieve message alerts from Facebook sent directly to the Storm but I havent heard anything about MySpace. Do u know the Storm will recieve message alerts from your MySpace acct?

Hey there! We just posted today on some possible pricing information. At Verizon, you could be looking at as low as $220 on a two year contract. No word yet on pricing information for Telus or Bell.

SO can anyone know an estimated price range for the Storm? I've heard/read anywhere from $350 - $600. Is this accurate?

Heard from a Best Buy employee that the Storm has been delayed and not coming out until December but definitely before X-mas.

I have tried the simulator and it is way cool. This helped me understand how the Blackberry Storm will work. I have read post about it being $199.00, $99.00 and even maybe free with a 2 year contract. I just hope it is not more then $199.00

Wondering if you can put your own full movies on it like I do on my Ipod. I know with a 18GB SD card it won't hold alot but it would be nice.

I'm a guy with big fingers and even though i didn't have much trouble with the iPhone the Storm comes out stronger with it's larger keys. So the one thing you'll have to ask yourself is 1) Have you tried SureType and like it? 2) Are you comfortable enough to tap on a flat screen.
