I thought everyone should see this. It is about Monday's announcement, but check out what their source said about a release date:

Hopefully we know for sure Monday. I would love for it to be October 1st.

With over 2500 posts in the pre-release thread (and certainly more to come), I do hope this phone gets its own sub-forum like the Dare. There will be so many subjects to discuss: apps, how-to(s), mods, etc., etc., etc. Certainly, this phone will bring in many inexperienced BB users. Soooo phone geeks, tech-know-philes, master hackers and others with experience - get ready to take your patience pills cause there will be more than one storm-a-brewin as this thing hits the streets (and the forums)!

Yea, I think they'll make this into a bunch of separate forums once the phone officially exists

If there is any truth to 1 Oct I hope we see some new info leaking out soon. I'm Jonesin for more pix and specs.

It looks like the link was changed to Nov 1st. They must have made a mistake.

That aligns better to what Kevin Byrne posted originally

[Stang68]

False alarm...looks like they changed their date back to November 1st.

[LilSizzler]

Probably not much. It will most likely be more of an announcement of the Storm's existence, and perhaps some basic specs.

It would be nice to have them actually acknowledge the existence... and some 'for sure' specs could boost the morale of this thread! But definitely shouldn't get too much hope built up again.

Yea, I'll say that site is not reliable at all. They say it has trackball navigation

That sir is, one nice find.

Edit: although I see something that isn't correct.
