The USA Today is making a stand on something thought impossible only months ago - that Blackberry's new Storm will make a meaningful dent in the new and powerful iPhone franchise.
"Storm costs $200 with a two-year contract after a rebate, same as the smallest-capacity iPhone. It has a better camera, works as a tethered modem (for an extra fee) and has expandable memory, voice dialing, multimedia messaging, support for Bluetooth stereo, copy-and-paste functionality and other features missing in the iPhone."
It's hard to bet against cool which makes this premise a difficult one. RIMM has a big corporate installed base, some of which must be ready and waiting for something cool to compete with their friends' iPhone.
At $200 a copy, it's a big market.
