There is speculation over at BGR that RIM pushed flashed a non-final version of the Storm OS (4.7.0.65) after they found a potential security issue with the final release (4.7.0.82). This would certainly make sense as early speed tests show significant lag time and major issues with the accelerometer. Rotating from landscape to portrait mode takes entirely too long. Not to worry, as Mobility Today is reported that an OTA update is set to hit Monday. So much for the quiet after the Storm. Okay, I'm done with the puns.
