Blackberry uses wakeboading in promo video

[spenchey2]

For blackberrys new Storm 2 they have a quick shot of a person wakeboarding. Just thought i'd share, our sport has grown leaps and bounds in the last couple years.

Maybe someone with more technical skill than myself can post the embedded youtube link.

couldn't find a youtube code but that is sweet that the new Storm will have WiFi. That has been my only complaint since day one, obviously they listened to everybody

I'm having a bit of buyers remorse getting a Tour after seeing the how well they have improved this phone from the first one. But the Tour is still an excellent phone.

The touchscreen is probably better than the first. It took me a while to get used to is but it works pretty good. I'm sure the new one is better though. That WiFi thing really brings it into competition with the Iphone. Sometimes even with Verizon you don't have great coverage and being able to hit a hot spot is a great backup.

My Dad was going to get the Storm and I talked him into the Tour because he does more email than internet. The touch screen is cool if you don't have to type on it a lot but if you are emailing more than surfing the web, the Tour is the way to go. I have an iPhone (work) and a BB Pearl (personal) and I would rather type on the Pearl than the stupid touch screen of the iPhone.

Thats why I went for the Tour too. Don't really like the touchscreen stuff, but I find it neat. I see now they are putting a trackpad on phone instead of the trackball, which I would prefer to the ball since of the issues of dirt.

I just went from the Curve to the Tour. I like it except for the battery life is pour and the reception is worse than the curve.

I have the storm 1 which is a bit frustrating to type on. I previously had an older blackberry which I loved to type on. Not sure if I should upgrade to Storm 2 or get the Tour??? They say the typing is suppose to be improved on Storm 2.

I've heard there are plans for a Storm 3 at the end of 2010 with a slide out key board! That would be my preference, wish the current storms had slide out key boards!

I'm not a huge fan of my storm. it can be frustrating to type on it, it doesn't ring for texts if you're in that application, it doesn't "turn" when tilted fast enough, and it's just too damn big.
I wish I hadn't gotten it...too late now though
