As promised (http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/10/08/blackberry-storm-bows-comes-next-month-to-verizon-and-vodafone/2), Vodafone has officially announced a November delivery date for its BlackBerry Storm -- November 14, to be specific. Pre-orders are already being taken (as they are in the States (http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/05/best-buy-taking-blackberry-storm-pre-orders-starting-tomorrow/)), so if you want to be in the first batch of Brits to rock this thing, it might be a good idea to go ahead and get on a list lest the throngs of humanity trying to get one on launch day end up harshing your chances. On a related note, Vodafone's better (or worse) half Verizon has come forward with a surprisingly affordable data plan -- GlobalEmail -- that'll allow unlimited web browsing, MMS, and visual voicemail both in the US and a laundry list of countries around the world for $69.99 (or $64.99 when tied to a voice plan). Speaking of voice, Verizon's also announced a new Global Value Plan that hooks you up with discounted minutes abroad for $4.99 a month. Seeing how the Storm is Verizon's first handset with global 3G, this new action should see some serious play.
