BlackBerry Storm OS 4.7.0.83 (+ Video)
If your BlackBerry Storm is still misbehaving then you might want to treat it to another dose of leaked firmware. This time around it’s version 4.7.0.83.
Preliminary changes seem to suggest that the handset responds faster, with both applications loading and closing faster and the on-screen keyboard doing a better job of keeping up with typing. Browser rendering is also reportedly faster, with one user suggesting that some sites loaded in a third of the time they used to.
Other suggest that the accelerometer is faster (though some users report it’s actually slower than before in the home screen) but that now the Storm can sometimes miss clicks in the corners of the display. Of course, as an unofficial leak you try firmware 4.7.0.83 at your own risk; installing it could affect your handset’s warranty or even break it altogether.

BlackBerry Storm Commercials Round-Up
In the US, Verizon commercials start off with a few features of the BlackBerry Storm and then pans out to the Verizon Network people in its commercials, selling the network.
In Canada, Telus is marketing the BlackBerry Storm as a "handy" device and also as great gift.
In the UK, the BlackBerry Storm commercials have a lot of rock music and make the BlackBerry Storm look very trendy and way cool. The BlackBerry Storm also appears to come with a very handsome man, while in the U.S. and Canada we don't get see the BlackBerry Storm user.

Blackberry Storm: Top 5 YouTube Reviews
PC World bring us the five most popular, insightful and interesting BlackBerry Storm YouTube video reviews:
5. Kyle: This Is the Best Verizon Phone. Period.
Kyle (jameskm03) loves the Storm's new touch screen and its camera ("The 3.2-megapixel camera is MONEY!"), but he hates that the phone doesn't support Wi-Fi. This guy knows his stuff on the Blackberry and its operating system, and his review of the new smart phone is pleasantly (and impressively) insightful and balanced. As he says (twice), "I'm not gonna lie to you..."
4. College Boy: This Is Not an iPhone Killer
Here's the counterpoint to #5. Once this guy (mdscinto) finally gets rolling into his rant (just FF to about 1:15 in the video, where he starts hitting his stride), he touches on many of the major criticisms of the Storm that are now making the rounds among tech critics and Apple fanboys/girls: uncomfortable typing motion, slow OS, no Wi-Fi, etc., etc. So here he is on the dorm-room cam, making art not war...
3. "Gorgeous, Sexy, Amazing"
I've watched this video from "gotenkslovesme" about five times now--never mind that the video's oriented sideways for undisclosed reasons. Though this wee slip of a lass is no Walt Mossberg, I just can't get enough of her heavy Scottish brogue, especially when she says: "It's the first ever clickable touch screen..." Wow.
2. BlackBerry Storm vs. iPhone
This is the most-watched BlackBerry Storm review on YouTube right now, with 271,301 views (at this writing). The reviewer, Jon Rettinger (jon4lakers), pits the Storm side-by-side on a table top against the 3G iPhone to make his comparison more vivid. The matchup includes a download speed test (cool) that Verizon's EvDO network wins handily.
1. From a Bunker in the Suburbs
This young guy, "themacfan45", caught a lot of flak in comments on YouTube responding to his review of the BlackBerry Storm. But PC World has his back. Good review, my bespectacled friend, and keep 'em coming. Someday you may grow up to be a highly paid hot-shot tech journalist like me and David Pogue. Just lay off the cough syrup, okay? It might help with your delivery.

BlackBerry Storm Scratch Test (Video)
If you are considering purchasing the BlackBerry Storm, no doubt you have given at least a little consideration as to the durability of the screen and wonder if it scratches easily.
This video should put those worries to bed.
A knife, also one of those prongs that restaurants poke their receipts on, and finally the all important key scratching test, and guess what, through it all and not a scratch in sight.
