    Hey guys, new guy here.

    I have had the curve for some time now. I know some things about the blackberry software, but looks like I will learn a lot on this site.

    My question is, do you know if T-Mobile will carry the Storm? Or where someone like myself could get my hands on one?

    I do apologize in advance if this issue has already been discussed.

    Kind Regards.

    I dont mean to sound ignorant, but what is a vodafone?

    Is it the same phone just not as fast, or work on the 3g network?

    vodaphone is to europe, what att is to the usa
    gsm is to att and t mobile what cdma is to verizon and sprint
    and none of this matters unless you're a techie

    a techie is to the technology world what a birdwatcher is to the bird world.

    gsm is Global System for Mobile Communication.

    GSM definition (Phone Scoop)

    it means you use a sim card

    will verizon sell enough to keep the exclusivity? if not, other carriers could get it.

    I totally despice both Vodafone and T Mobile for being the 2 biggest carriers in Europe!
    Keeping up the prices with exclusivity contracts. It's old skool monopoly play.
    1 year ago I could only choose Tmo for my Pearl, now I can only choose Vodafone for my future Storm if I want another BB. In that way I probably won't renew my contract with Tmo but they also don't have to give away a new BB. That's what I first thought. But it is even worse this powerplay by these two telecom giants: Tmo ditched BB for having exclusivity on the G1 !!!

    FREE MAGENTA, FREE BB .....FREE WILLY....???
