Last week, we have seen how Maxis and iPhone dominating the local telcos news with the official release of iPhone to the local market. Not to be outdone with its rival, Celcom beginning this weekend, started to air, TV commercial promoting unknown device due to be unveiled April. You can guess what it is based on the size.

It is none other than iPhone rival…. Blackberry Storm!! Well, my early guess appears to be true.

Blackberry Storm is the first touch screen phone from RIM, compete directly with Apple iPhone on the smartphone segment. It manage to grab quite an attention when it was released last year, so it is interesting how it will compete here in the local market.

No detail about the device price as well as the data plan or call plan available on the Celcom’s Storm webpage. It is unknown if it will use existing plan or Celcom will introduce new plans just like Maxis approach with iPhone.

Interested user can prebook now, where there are free gift worth RM638 up for grab. Head to Celcom’s Blackberry Storm page for more information.
