I recently reactivated my old Storm and was wondering ( I still carry the Asurion plan on my account so the BB is covered...) if VZW had any Storms left, should my Storm experience a failure? Or have all original Storms been upgraded to the Storm 2 for replacement?
You are correct, the Storm is a good phone. The Storm 2 is an upgraded version with WiFi and the bottom buttons now built into the touch screen. They are still available at Verizon, but at nearly two hundred bucks, they are way overpriced.
I still have my Storm 1 but I have gone back to using my HTC Droid Incredible. While I like the Storm still, the browser just sucks compared to that on my Android phone. I tried Opera and it is ok, but Android is stop better.
The real reason I switched to Android was due all the dust I kept getting under the screen of my Storm. I finally replaced the screen myself and in less than a month there was a lot of dust again. That and the slow browser pushed me to Android.
