Lunchtime lowdownStop! Lunch time! But before you chomp down on that sandwich, have a quick squiz at all the tech news you’ve missed today, there’s a good chap.

The BlackBerry Storm is leaking information like an MI5 laptop on a train. Now we’ve caught sight of the first TV advert, as well as BlackBerry’s Application Centre, ready to serve up 3rd party apps direct to the handset.

Unlike the iPhone, the BlackBerry Storm’s store will be hosted by networks, so you’ll get specific apps that relate to your mobile provider. Confused? No need. We’ve summed it all up here!

The Nintendo DSi, meanwhile, continues to confuse us. Now Nintendo’s revealed that the hardware will be region locked. That means you’ll have to wait until next year to get your hands on one, unless you can speak Japanese.

It’s deeply annoying, and we’ve rounded up five reasons why region locking the DSi is a bad move.

Lastly, we’ve got a question for you. Is this the ugliest phone you’ve ever seen? It’s definitely high on our list. Have a look and let us know!
