As noted then, the first device to get the portal is the BlackBerry Storm2 , with other RIM devices (and hopefully other mobile platforms) in the coming months. It’s not taking the place of BlackBerry App World, so now that we’ve got two coexisting markets on one device, it’s time to see just how strong that V Cast branding is… [Thanks, Cameron] Verizon’s V Cast Apps store is a go, first on BlackBerry Storm2 originally appeared on Engadget on Wed, 31 Mar 2010 07:31:00 EST.
