BlackBerry Storm 2 accessories roll into Best Buy
Silicone skins for the Storm 2 are starting to find their way into shipments destined to Best Buy stores around the country, another solid signal that RIM’s second touchscreen effort is hitting retail sooner rather than later. What we found amusing about this first batch is that the packaging seems conflicted about what to call the thing — 9550, Storm II (as opposed to Storm2 or Storm 2, interestingly), and even the phone’s codename Odin all make appearances front and center. We suppose they’re just trying to make it crystal clear what phone the skin’s intended for, and with leaks going back a solid year, you’ve got to cover all your bases.

Palm Pixi stares GSM in the face, lives to brag about it (update: video!)
Though nothing’s been announced, betting against a GSM version of the Palm Pixi would be a foolish move. There’s certainly no mistaking that “E” for Edge logo and SIM slot beneath the battery in these leaked images from Vietnam (yes, again). Oddly, this particular GSM variant pictured only contains 4GB of internal storage vs. the 8GB model announced for Sprint. Perhaps a prototype limitation only? Let’s hope.
Update: Video now available after the break.

Ooma Telo hits the streets, handset add-on follows next month
We’re not sure how we really feel about Ooma Telo’s slick new look (pictured on the right). Sure, it might seem more at home with the rest of our generic home electronics compared to the semi-retro original (left) … but is that necessarily a good thing? Either way it’s out now, and at $250 a pop it’s quite a bit more friendly on the wallet than the original Ooma Hub, which retailed for $400 way back when. The big new feature of the Telo is its DECT 6.0 support for working with the upcoming Ooma Telo Handset which will be out next month for $50. Since this is Ooma, all local and long distance calls are free right out of the gate, but a Ooma Premier membership goes for $10 a month and gets you some improved functionality. Two months are included with a purchase of the Telo, and a year subscription gets you a free number porting or a free Telo Handset when it becomes available.

Video: BlackBerry Bold 9700 on Vietnam holiday from AT&T
Surely you’re not tired of seeing the BlackBerry Bold 9700 yet are you. A handset described as “the most gorgeous BlackBerry on the planet” in early previews deserves a few more minutes in the spotlight, be it official or not. Vietnamese site tinh te returns with some of the best leaked shots and video we’ve seen to date giving us a crystal clear look at the 9700’s orange AT&T splash-screen, real pleather battery cover, and squircle trackpad. They’ve also taken the time to size it up appropriately with previous gen BlackBerries for your comparison kicks. Video after the break, more images just beyond the read link.
[Thanks, Nam N]

250GB PS3 Slim spotted at retail in dapper gray box
The new 250 PS3 Slim might be listed “in stock” on Amazon.co.uk, but it’s not arriving until October 6th according to the online retailer. This particular model, however, is up for sale right this instant at some unnamed retail store in Europe — even though it’s hanging out behind a rather messy help desk in this particular shot. Either way, folks in Europe with a hankering for hard drive don’t have long to wait!
[Thanks, Alex S]
