Verizon Wireless said on Thursday that it would sell the touchscreen BlackBerry Storm for $199.99 after a rebate — in line with pricing for its popular rival, Apple’s iPhone. The wireless venture of Verizon Communications and Vodafone Group said the first touchscreen phone from Research In Motion would cost $199.99 after a $50 rebate for customers who sign a new two-year service contract. Pricing for the highly anticipated device, which goes on sale online and in Verizon stores on Nov. 21, has been the source of much speculation.
