Yeah I am a little text and email crazy. I prefer that to talking, I only use 200-300 minutes a month. LOL

Awesome review, Mike!!!!! I've had my Storm for 2 weeks and i really like the device. I really don't understand some of the negative reviews and the issues some users are having. I have not experienced any problems so far (knocking on wood).

Thanks for posting the review

Jesson, i believe it all comes down to user preference. their are 2 very distinctive markets. the touchscreen fans and qwerty fans,

The Storm is a well-performing, elegant device. I agree with the post above that the tactile sensation each person feels is different from pressing distinct physical buttons as opposed to the "large one button screen" mechanism in the Storm. For me personally, I believe greater precision can be achieved with distinct physical buttons that enable the typist to know when he or she has pressed a button (and more importantly, the one in the right place). I also play the piano (not professionally), but just my two cents.

All I can say is whoa

[just txt and calls mam]

the main reason I got the storm above the other blackberrys was because I have hands like shovels and trying to hit the qwerty keys without double entries was almost impossible

I see now as much from the input from places like crackberry and it's members storm 1 is becoming the item it should have been at the start

good review.. the storms not all bad it's just those of use with early ones who have now got rid have unfond memories

You've helped me to make two very important decisions, namely, buy a Storm and switch to Verizon. Thanks!
