BlackBerry Storm2 Announced: Five Ways It's Better - Reviews by PC Magazine: "On Thursday, RIM and Verizon announced the long-rumored BlackBerry Storm2 9550.

RIM didn't just add a new coat of paint and a few software tweaks with the new device. Finally, the innovative touchscreen smartphone just works, and just a few key deficiencies kept it from earning an Editor's Choice award.

1) A vastly improved touchscreen: Let's just say it: the first Storm's touch screen was weird. When it came out, people couldn't stop talking about its odd clicking touch screen that provided haptic feedback. It was like pushing down on a physical button, and yet it wasn't.

This makes the screen more responsive and better for typing.
