Default Got my Tour!

I've been running around crackberry.com for a long time and i love the insight that is rampant around here. You all have been a huge help as i have moved through the blackberry world from the 8830 to the curve to the storm back to the curve back to the storm and now as a verizon customer i have found the next great thing. the tour has been fantastic. i was able to get one sent to me by a friendly person and it has been amazing. i recommend anyone who is working with the storm and unhappy to make the switch. i'm so happy its finally been announced and the real excitement can begin for those who don't have it yet. i feel as though i'm pretty experienced with a blackberry so if anyone has any questions for a regular joe user, fire away.

i feel as though the browser is much better than the storm. i wasn't sold on storm's browser and it never excited me. the tour's is very smooth and as far as i can tell pretty quick.

i am running 4.7.1.26 which is what it came with. i'm not experienced enough to be messing around with the OS

Like CX said... Any OS after the .28 is amazing with the battery. The battery in mine lasts longer than the one in my curve.

The camera is really really fast, and amazing. I took the same pic from a Javelin and then in my Tour and the difference is pretty big. The Tour kicks ****
