It was supposed to give BlackBerry the brand cachet of Apple's iPhone but instead the launch of the BlackBerry Storm has escalated into a disaster, with critics and users claiming the device is the company's worst effort yet.
The Storm, which went on sale exclusively through Vodafone stores today, has been on the US market for two weeks and BlackBerry loyalists are dismayed by an apparent plethora of bugs, slow speeds and poor usability.
On gadget forums such as BlackBerry's own support boards, the biggest issue seems to be the keyboard - or lack thereof. Unlike every other BlackBerry to date, there is no tactile keyboard on the Storm, just a large touchscreen and a virtual keyboard.
While some users have praised the touchscreen for being "clickable" - allowing it to offer tactile feedback - many say the keys on the virtual keyboard are too close together and the clickable screen is cumbersome for typing long messages. This is a deal breaker for a device that is designed primarily for email.
"I think dumping an unfinished, buggy device on people was pretty shameful and shoddy," wrote one user on CrackBerry.com in a view consistent with other accounts.
Vodafone has heavily subsidised the handset cost of the Storm, offering it for $0 upfront on a $69-a-month plan that includes unlimited email and internet usage.
Both Vodafone and the US carrier Verizon say the Storm is their fastest selling handset yet. Vodafone said last month it was forced to push back the Australian launch from Monday due to unprecedented demand.
"In the UK, we've been selling a Vodafone Storm every 13 seconds, and on the basis of demand from our pre-registration process, which is well into the thousands, we're expecting demand to be just as hot here in Australia," Vodafone Australia CEO Russell Hewitt said at the time.
But the honeymoon period has now worn off after overseas users had the chance to play with the Storm for a few weeks.
"Having used many other [BlackBerry maker] Research In Motion devices, I can't remember a device being released with so many bugs," Allen Nogee, In-Stat Research's principal analyst for wireless technology, told MSNBC.
"There is no doubt that this device was rushed to market to make the Christmas selling season."

BlackBerry Bold debuts in North America

The long-awaited BlackBerry Bold, or BlackBerry 9000, made its North American debut Thursday on Rogers Wireless in Canada.
The Bold is a souped-up version of the BlackBerry Curve model, which has sold well in the U.S. on all four major carriers. This new and improved BlackBerry is supposed to have a superior screen resolution to the Curve and more memory. It also has Wi-Fi and operates over a 3G network, something the GSM version of the Curve does not do. Rogers, like AT&T and T-Mobile, which offer the Curve in the U.S., is a GSM carrier.

But all the new bells and whistles will cost consumers a pretty penny, which might make it out of reach for the consumer customers Research in Motion hopes to attract. Rogers will sell the phone for about $400 with a three-year voice and data plan.
Many have compared the Bold to Apple's iPhone 3G, even going as far as to call it RIM's iPhone killer. But even though the Bold offers an improved full HTML Web browser and an improved screen resolution for watching video, it does not have a touch screen. Like previous BlackBerry models, it has a standard QWERTY keypad and BlackBerry's special track ball for navigation.
That said, the real BlackBerry iPhone killer will likely be the BlackBerry Thunder, which is supposed to have a touch screen. The Thunder is expected to be released later this year.
The Bold has already been available in other countries including, Germany, Austria, Turkey, Chile and Ecuador. But Rogers is the first North American carrier to get the phone. The phone is expected to launch in the U.S. in September. And a CDMA version of the phone is also expected.
