    Because you will see the younger generation getting this phone, as well as immature storm owners that are coming over.

    (I'm not saying all kids are immature, nor storm owners but we do see a pattern on CB, so don't get **** hurt)

    The bold forums, curve etc. don't go through this garbage

    We are all Blackberry owners when it comes down to it... the Storm is a better phone than you and a lot of people are giving it... plus some people won't be able to upgrade to the Tour simply because they may not have $500 to drop on a phone that will only be top dog for a few months.

    Will the Tour be a great phone? Yes, the reviews are hard to dispute. Will the Tour be the best CDMA Blackberry? For the time being, of course, it's the top dog on Verizon anyways.

    Is it the best phone to ever be made on earth for now and eternity? No... so just calm down... you guys may be the same one trying to defend the Tour when it's trumped by the next great one. :]

    Well, look at it this way...those unhappy with the Storm will now have a non-Curve alternative. So I certainly will feel less sympathy for them if they continue to be displeased with their handset. I hope you are wrong about your prediction, but I wouldn't be surprised unfortunately.

    I for one will be happy to point Storm-carrying Tour critics toward the door.

    And that is fine, and I assume at one point you had a Storm and went back to the Curve, unless your Curve has a Storm emulator and then you are just amazing.

    But, the Storm is at least far superior to the 8330 in it's current OS, and you can argue all you want but I have had both and am pretty firm in my opinion there... but of course it is merely an opinion and all of us obviously has one of those.

    LOL. The Storm is not bad at all. What the OP is saying is that there have already been some posts saying how bad the Tour is and how much better the Storm is. This will definitely increase in a few hours and some will even claim to have bought the Tour, found it to be horrible, and returned it right away. While this may be true in some cases, many will be made up.

    Just a question, how did you go about getting your tour? Im thinking of getting one with out dropping $500+ unless thats what you did

    I had the Storm and went back to the Curve. I don't see how it was superior, much less "far". When I answered a call I had to wait like 2-3 seconds for the call to kick in. And that was the least of the problems.

    What was the last OS you used? I am not being a **** I am sincerely curious. The official .148 and the recently leaked .151 are really, really great and stable and have really made me consider sticking it out with the Storm until next May when I can use my NE2 discount.

    No idea what the OS was. But, my personal opinion is, if I have to load a new OS to fix known problems, why would I get it in the first place. ESPECIALLY if the known problems weren't fixed until someone here made up their own hybrid OS.

    first we'll see the "OMG this thing pwns" shortly after we'll see "OMG This thing sucks, im getting an iphone" with that the two will argue with each other for another period of time, but eventually we'll have it all to ourselves and hopefully share some sweet tweaks and tips and troubleshooting.

    I too have enjoyed the ride imensely

    So the 8330 was perfect when it came out? From the reports I heard it wasn't... and nearly every other Blackberry needed at least one update to get out fairly significant glitches including the Bold. Plus the Storm was RIM's biggest leap in technology possibly ever by trying to bring a contemporary technology like a touch screen into a proven system. Again... just saying that very few devices or any examples of technology are perfect when they are released...

    ...except Apple products of course!!! *ducks*

    the bold and the curve forums are amazing...they are well organized and not loaded with junk questions and statements..Also the bold thread has theme/wallapaper thread set as a sticky...I hope the tour section does the same...We are going to need a good thread so everyone can discuss their themes and the wallpapers they are using..
