Harrison just let me know that Verizon has announced some upcoming global data roaming plans for the BlackBerry Storm. The plans will be $69.99/month for a standalone plan and $64.99/month when added to a voice plan. I guess they really are planning on capitalizing on the international 3G standard and quad band EDGE that they have in the Storm.
They also announced a discounted international roaming voice plan for $4.99/month which gives you cheaper calls in 130 countries.

These plans have been available for the 8830 as global roaming/email. Guess they’re really pitching the storm as a business device. Will be interesting to see the uptake
