Â In keeping with the competitive UK market, the handset will be available on November 11th from free on select price plans, with 12, 18 and 24 month contracts are available .
let’s talk pricing:
£300 (US $495): 12-month contract, starting at £40/month
FREE: 18-month contract, starting at £40/month
FREE: 24-month contract, starting at £35/month
That means the cheapest cost-of-ownership for a BlackBerry Storm in the UK is £570 on the 18-month, £15 plan, though that doesn’t get you unlimited internet and email access. The cheapest way to get inclusive unlimited SMS, internet and email is the 18-month, £40 plan which gets you a free Storm and 600 inclusive minutes. That works out to £720.
