Hey there . It ’s me , with another excuse . I ’m sorry we did n’t survey the BlackBerry Storm 2 . It ’s because RIM does n’t like about you guys .
It ’s been total wireless muteness from them regarding a follow-up unit , so we ’re previous with a review . I ’m sorry we ca n’t provide our usual storey of speed and depth on the machine ; usually , we ’re provided with a review social unit at or forrader of release and have the time to put it through its tread . But apparently we ’ve been blacklist . This is not about that .
RIM ’s never really liked Gizmodo or Engadget , or blogs in universal . They gave reassessment units to the NYT and WSJ , who go away ahead and panned the telephone , just like we would have . I do n’t beware when we get put to the back of the list for that ground , the orientation of old media over new . But this was n’t just an anti - online decision — they also give a phone to Crackberry , which far fewer people read . I do n’t mind that internet site at all , but clear RIM is micturate about something we specifically did .
Since they ’re not responding to sound claim or emails now , I can only guess its because Engadget ( god sanctify them for breaking the news on this ) did a hands on of a Storm 2 Handset6 calendar month before it launched . Before it was even acknowledge that it existed . ( UPDATE : Crackberry did , too , make a usual practice of deal unreleased phones on blog . honest on them!)Understandably , RIM got pissed , although you ’d think they ’d get pissed at themselves for appropriate the leak . But that does n’t explain why we were n’t allowed to go over it out . My hunch is that they knew we ’d savage it . That ’s all right , it ’s not their obligation to pass on out review units to us if they do n’t desire to . We ’re a low publication in the grand schema of media . This is not about that .
The bottom line is that I ’m sorry we could n’t distinguish you this based off our own in firm review . Now you know why .
