BlackBerry StormUS mobile network Verizon’s gearing up to launch the first touchscreen BlackBerry, but its internal training materials have leaked online. Come and flick through the PowerPoint presentation’s contents, and find out everything there is to know about BlackBerry Storm!

The document, unearthed by the chaps at Engadget, details all of the Storm’s “wow factors” including enhanced background noise cancellation, it’s 3.25 inch high resolution screen, and ‘tactile’ response to finger presses.

We’re guessing that means BlackBerry’s much-hyped haptic feedback, which is believed to vibrate specific parts of the screen when they’re touched, so on-screen buttons feel like the real thing.

According to the document, Verizon will ship the BlackBerry thunder with an 8GB microSD card in the box, in addition to the phone’s 1GB of built-in memory.

As we expected, there’ll be a 3.2 megapixel camera too, as well as GPS, Flickr, Facebook, Yahoo IM, Google Talk, AOL messenger and Windows Live Messenger built in.

Visual Voicemail will also make an appearance, although according to Verizon it’ll be available after the phone launches.
