Earlier this week, pictures of the sequel to RIM’s BlackBerry Storm got leaked. You can view the full picture gallery via Engadget.

So what do we think?

Ok, we like RIM. In fact, some of us came from Waterloo. But RIM’s first BlackBerry Storm was just a product disaster and only serious BlackBerry fans with iPhone envy would buy it. In a rush to capitalize on the full screen smartphone popularity, RIM rushed Storm out the door, basically shoe-horning existing BlackBerry UI on a full touch device. That just doesn’t work, and the result was a failed product.

We hope that RIM will fix the user interface problems in Storm 2.
