There are, shall we say, certain "advantages" to driving a race car sponsored by global wireless behemoth Vodafone. Fame, fortune, and a free account (seriously, all the minutes and kilobytes you can eat!) definitely rank high on that list, but it all pales in comparison to this. It seems that Formula 1 wizard Lewis Hamilton has been gifted with a Voda-branded Storm, a great publicity play for the carrier -- particularly as he's sitting in front of a camera describing how "wicked" it is. Clearly, the video is little more than a PR stunt, but the phone genuinely seems to be his, and at least we can get a clear look at how fast, fluid, and pretty the interface appears to be. So, anyone know where he leaves that thing when he's out racing? Check the full action after the break.
Boooring... All these phones are beginning to meld into one type of bubbly gui driven OS. I'm not really excited about any phone coming out in the near future. They are all starting to look the same. Maybe I'll check out some of the watch phones.

Would you prefer a text based OS for your phone? That would be fun.
OK, now I'm officially hyped for this. I think I'll pick this up instead of the HTC diamond.
LOL i bet he can download all he wants music wise 4 free.
If he's a real Crackberry addict, he would have it with him in the car :-p. Wonder if it could actually withstand all that heat...
Is it just me or is the Storm kinda...squarish?
