Just qualify what you say in the future if you so desire.

Ditto. Just because you were wrong this time shouldnt keep you from sharing details in the future. You helped us get through the last couple of weeks

lol

@Stang, Good thread. Hugely popular for obvious reasons. I guess we can wait till CTIA is over to close it, but at the same time we can all jump over to the new Denver Conf. thread and start all over again! YAY!

that was my plan till this device was "confirmed" or whatever the **** you call it at this point. the ipod touch/iphone has super monkey ball! i don't know if the bb will be able to pull off such a sweet awesome entertainment app. i love my bb but frankly i'm very disapointed with it's multimedia capabilities and am very much so looking forward to the storm if and when it comes out. world phone plus 8 gig and 1 gig ram, what's not to like?

Epic freaking facepalm on Verizon and Rim, now i may just say screw it and get a Dare or something.

Rjsumthin · #**591** 09-11-2008, 04:56 PM

Dare isn't a bad phone, plus it has resell value. Hopefully by the time the device comes out you can craigs list your device and buy the storm full retail for about the same as you would have originally, ;D

I think this is the first time I have ever seen "craigs list" used as a verb. Ha ha! Awesome.

Well I walked in... and had a Curve in my hand... but I felt discouraged by the sales rep, who recommended me to wait, citing that the device would surely be out by Christmas. She was bummed out about no clear info being released today either...

Tom Petty had it right... The waiting is the hardest part...

Nah i have been sitting on my renewal for a long time now,and I hate my current phone, and I want to get rid of it.

i am in a similar situation. i want so badly to throw some cash at RIM but this is basically dangling in my face saying "lol go ahead get a curve for 50 bucks but i'm gonna be more than that at retail price, but i wont tell you how much, or anything else"

oh well

Wow...the memories that this thread brings back. We all had our hopes so high...just to have them crushed at CTIA. 41 pages of pure speculation...I love Crackberry.com and I love you guys.
