Boy Genius Report, ground zero for all cell phone rumors, is reporting that the BlackBerry Storm 2--RIM's followup to its wonky iPhone-like device--is due "around October 25th."
The information comes from a leaked Best Buy product inventory shot, which has dummy units for the upcoming smartphone arriving at the big box retailer on that date. The real devices reportedly are set to arrive in stores just before the dummy units.
A separate rumor has the Storm 2 priced at $599 with no contract at Best Buy.

Here's hoping. Verizon needs a decent smartphone like whoa, and if the BB Storm 2 doesn't improve on the original Storm, Verizon will wind up being known for feature phones and a strong network and nothing on that network that can use it...
