The community at CrackBerry likes to leak BlackBerry Storm updates, before they are released. Recently, they leaked version 4.7.0.85.
They warn that updaters should do so at their own risk. If you have patience, it is always better to wait until your carrier releases the update.
What's interesting to note is what the next update does for the BlackBerry Storm. Version 4.7.0.85 is supposed to:
- Fix some bugs.
- Speed up the accelerometer action for automatic portrait landscape changing.
- More responsive typing.
The website for the download is really busy.
The BlackBerry Storm tied with two other smartptones for first place in Wireless and Mobile News' Top Coolest, Best, Hottest Smartphones of 2008.
Our editor observed a brand new BlackBery Storm user yesterday, at the tire store. The new user seemed to have no trouble using her Storm

iPhone.
Editors Note: Previously, we published several
articles about BlackBerry Storm firmware updates that may be helpful.
If they are not implemented correctly, users are stuck with their old
