Which New BlackBerry Should You Get?


It's an exciting time for BlackBerry aficionados, thanks to the recent release of two new models that are radical departures from anything manufacturer RIM has ever offered before. The BlackBerry Storm, which incorporates the first BlackBerry touchscreen (heresy according to some fans who feel that a real QWERTY keyboard is the essence of BlackBerrys); and the BlackBerry Pearl Flip, which is RIM's first clamshell-style flip phone.

We can't tell you how many of our 'Berry-lovin' friends and colleagues have asked whether they should get the Flip or the Storm, so we made a little video outlining the pros and cons of each, which we hope will help make the decision easier.

One thing we forgot to mention: Unlike the Storm, the Flip has built-in Wi-Fi, which means you can get fast surfing speeds (and less expensive Internet calls) whenever you're in a Wi-Fi hotspot. Okay, amendment to our video is done. You can watch the video now.
