Not wanting to be left out of the picture, Bell has finally launched the BlackBerry Storm which likewise puts an end to rumors that it’s going to be released at a later date. The BlackBerry Storm is retailing for $249.95 on a 3-yr contract with a minimum of $45/month voice and data plan, $549.95 on a 2-yr contract, $649.95 for a single year and $699.95 minus the contract. Based on the announcement, it’s already available in select Bell Mobility stores in the Greater Toronto area and will hit other branches nationwide starting tomorrow. If you want to order it online, it’s currently listed as temporarily out of stock online, but continues on to say:
Order yours now.
You will be billed in full today and your Storm will ship in early January.
If there are any issues with your order, we will contact you by email. Please ensure that you use a valid email address and check your filtered folders (junk mail) regularly
So if you don’t want to brave the long lines at Bell Mobility stores once the Storm becomes available, then I guess the online route is the safest way to go. Check out Bell’s BlackBerry Storm page here.
