ANOTHER New BlackBerry Storm 2 (9550 Odin) video

Only two days after we posted the previous Storm 2 video there is a new one! YouTube user iluvblackberry posted his video review of the new storm, showing some interesting features of the phone not seen on video yet – it runs on OS v5.0.0.161 (not the newest available version) and proves the existence of WiFi!
