Default Storm2 back to Storm1?

I am just wondering if anyone has returned their Storm2 and gone back to their Storm1?

I am seriously considering this just because I am not seeing much improvement over having my storm1. I know it is silly, but all of the upgrades made to the Storm2, I never really had an issue with my storm1. I guess what I am looking for is anyone else who has done it already or is considering it just like myself.

Well sadly that would be kind of pointless as I still have my Storm1. Plus on top of that I am still within my 30 days to return my phone to verizon.

Storm 1 is much better. You're not forced to run the joke that is 5.0 on your S1. With S2 it's another story.

Hey Val!

I cannot handle the slow browser in 5.0. Doesn't seem to matter if it's the S1 or S2. The auto dim problem is simply maddening. Yes it's a fast OS. Yes it's tight and the flick rocks.

You know those really slick looking new Mustangs with the Shelby stripes but they're sportin' a v6? That's how I view 5.0. Looks great but when you hit the gas nothing happens.

You have things backwards forsure. Btw the auto dim "bug" is also in 4.7.

I used every release and every leak from .65 forward. It never did it in 4.7. It did it in every 5.0.

The browser is slower in 5.0 than it is in 4.7. This isn't a matter of opinion. It has been proven in side by side tests.

Not sure exactly what I have backwards.

My browser seems to be quicker on 5.0 OS versions than the 4.7s... smoother scrolling too

The storm 2 demo unit I messed with was terrible. The screen was almost solid and it would be annoying to type on it. I prefer the storm 1 as well.
