We keep the show brief this week, as there’s not a whole ton to talk about. We rave about the $50 price tag on the Rogers BlackBerry Pearl flip, but things get a bit sour when we delve into a new tidbit on the Storm.

Highlights include:

Rogers has the pricing on the 8220 right. This is supposed to be an entry level device, so it deserves an entry level price. While $150 isn’t too bad for a BlackBerry, it just needs to be lower, as to appeal to the youth crowd and give everyone else an incentive to switch to BlackBerry. Hopefully, T-Mobile lowers their price to match (though it’s not like they’re competing).

Sad news, though. I heard from a little birdie that we could be seeing the Storm debut on November 23. That means another delay. As I note in the podcast, this is all speculation, but it comes from a reliable source. There is still every chance we see the device around the 16th, so don’t panic yet. Though I kinda did on the podcast.
