This update comes our way via our friends at TDC Group — With its new high resolution touch screen, big 3.2 megapixal camera, microSD memory card slot and unlocked GPS, the BlackBerry Storm is the perfect mobile platform for GIS. And with the ability to run ESRI ArcGIS Server software, the BlackBerry Storm can perform GIS tasks usually done with a laptop computer with an aircard. View live GIS maps, GPS field map points with digital photos, and track vehicles and personnel using Freeance Mobile software on the BlackBerry Storm to save time, money and resources. Freance Mobile also runs on the Bold, Curve and other BlackBerry devices.

Here are a few new Freeance Mobile Clients using ArcGIS Server software on BlackBerry smartphones:
- Mobile Area Water and Sanitary – Set to use the Verizon BlackBerry Storm for accessing water and sanitary system maps in the field.
City of Vaughan, Ontario – Showing service calls on GIS maps using multiple models of BlackBerry smartphones.
Kane County, Illinois – Planning to use the new Nextel Push to Talk BlackBerry 8350i for flood response and GIS field mapping.
