Bell now offering BlackBerry Storm2 9550

RIM BlackBerry Storm2

As expected, the BlackBerry Storm2 9550 made its Bell Mobility debut today. It will operate on Bell’s older CDMA network as Bell’s new HSPA network does not support the 2100MHz UMTS/HSPA band.

The BlackBerry Storm2 is powered by Blackberry OS 5. It comes with a 3.25-inch touchscreen display (480 by 360 pixels), 256MB Flash memory and 2GB of internal storage, built-in GPS/A-GPS, 802.11b/g Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, a 3.2MP camera with auto-focus and flash, a 3.5mm stereo headset jack, a microSDHC card slot, and a 1,400mAh battery. It supports dual-band CDMA/ED-DO, quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE, and single-band (2100MHz) UMTS/HSPA connectivity. As such, it will not work on Bell’s HSPA network and will instead operate on its EV-DO network.

Bell is offering the BlackBerry Storm2 9550 for CA$199.95 with a three-year contract, CA$399.95 with a two-year contract, CA$499.95 with a one-year contract, and CA$549.95 with no contract.
