Two carriers, UK-based carrier Vodaphone and US-based Verizon, say the BlackBerry Storm is coming to their networks next month. Despite Vodaphone using GSM technology compared to Verizon's CDMA network, the Storm will be able to roam on both networks. Along with the Vodaphone announcement, RIM is sharing some extra details on the Storm's touchscreen. The entire screen, the company says, is backed by springs which allow some additional give when a user begins typing on the screen. Still no pricing details on the unit, nor specific release dates but expect those details to come soon.
