Research in Motion has been in the game for a while focusing many of their BlackBerry  handsets on the enterprise market. However, with the release of their BlackBerry 6 mobile operating system alongside devices like the BlackBerry Torch 9800, their focus is getting much broader. In fact, RIM  has so many different BlackBerry devices on the market that it would be hard not to find a device that would suit your needs perfectly.

Seeing how full touch screen smartphones are all the rage, perhaps the BlackBerry Storm or BlackBerry Storm 2 is for you. Unfortunately, both devices were not received very well by consumers who were not very fond of its clicky touch screen. Despite this fact, rumors have suggested that RIM had forged on with the Storm line up and had planned to launch the BlackBerry Storm 3 at some point in the future.

Unfortunately, for those anxiously awaiting the Storm 3, reports have surfaced today that say RIM has canceled their plans to bring the device to market.

Two of the next Bada-driven Samsung smartphones, the S7230E Wave 723 and the S5330 Wave 2 Pro, are about to start selling any moment now in Spain (and probably in much more countries across Europe and the globe).

The QWERTY-fied Samsung S5330 Wave 2 Pro (a.k.a. Samsung Wave 533) was unveiled back in June and now it’s coming to Europe where it will be selling for less than 240 euro.

Apart from packing a side-slide QWERTY keyboard, the Bada-powered smartphone also features a 3.2-inch capacitive touchscreen (of WQVGA resolution) with multi-touch support as well as a 3MP snapper, a microSD memory card slot, an inbuilt GPS receiver, 802.11n Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. Speaking of connectivity, the phone only comes with 2G support (quad-band GSM/EDGE) on board.

As far as the recently announced Samsung Wave 723, it has the same 3.2″ TFT screen found on the Wave 533 and runs the same operating system (Bada OS). You won’t find a hardware QWERTY keyboard here but you get a better (5 megapixel) camera and support for 3G.

You can take a look at some Wave 723 live shots we took during this year’s IFA. Just follow that lin

The rumored Motorola EX115 and EX128 have just surfaced yet again. This time we get to find out the release dates and prices of both dual SIM feature phones. Those are expected to start shipping next month and should cost around 100 euro.

The Motorola EX115 will come with a full QWERTY keyboard, while the Motorola EX128 will pack a touch sensitive display (its size and resolution are still a mystery) and both will be able to accommodate two SIM cards at the same time.

Strangely, Motorola EX128 features some sort of a touchscreen UI – so far Motorola hasn’t presented any feature phone operated by touch so the EX128 novelty factor may extend beyond its Dual SIM capabilities.

The two upcoming devices have been spotted on the website of Germanos Romania, a European cellphone retailer, and according to it, they should become available on 18 October. The EX115 is expected to cost less than 95 euro, while the EX128 will be priced at less than 120 euro.
