Touch Screen BlackBerry In ActionTouch Screen BlackBerry In Action

For BlackBerry addicts with a bit of iPhone envy, the upcoming touch screen BlackBerry is an intriguing proposition. But RIM's Storm could be a disaster if the interface fails. A developer ninja got his hands on it, and shared his thoughts on YouTube.This guy (who's ninja mask isn't really a disguise if you've actually seen him in your office) pulls out the touch screen device around the 2:55 mark. He did say the virtual keyboard works well (whew), but overall navigation is weak.

I haven't touched this device, and I know the handset's not finalized, but this could put a damper on the Storm. Other specs aren't mentioned, but some details have leaked out.

Tip of the hat to the Boy Genius Report who, again, pointed me toward this news.
