If you’ve been keeping tabs on the BlackBerry Storm in Canada, you probably know by now that Telus isn’t exactly the type to shy away from making announcements concerning RIM’s first full touchscreen phone, and it seems it paid off for them.
Just as soon as they launched the Storm, the first batch has already sold out. If you’re desperate to get your own BlackBerry Storm before Christmas, it’s recommended that you place your orders before December 17th so you can be assured a unit once the next batch arrives.
The $249.99 price on a 3-yr plan promo that’s scheduled to end on December 25th might have something to do with the mad rush. Nevertheless, we figure that the merits of the Storm alone are good enough to whip up a small frenzy. If a 3-yr contract is too long for you, you can catch the Storm for $449.99 on a 2-yr contract, $549.99 for a single year, and $599.99 if you want to ditch the contract altogether.
