Blackberry has just announced the new Blackberry Storm, a smartphone that it’s hoping will be seen as the true challenger to the Apple iPhone. Blackberry used to be a niche player in the smartphones market, focusing solely on business users and therefore eschewing the kinds of features that are typical in your average smartphone.

Not any more. The rise of the iPhone, the introduction of new Google Android phones and the increasing move towards smarter phones in general has seen a an increasing number of new entrants encroaching on Blackberry’s market. To fend off these new pretenders to the enterprise throne, Blackberry had to produce something special – and with the Storm, it looks like it might just have succeeded.
