or multi-fru if i can't wait until then....i'm going for the eris. anyway, our choices are:
explosives
high velocity projectiles
blunt trauma
extreme heat/radiation
the "jimi hendrix" (set it on fire, then beat it with an electric guitar)
切腹 (seppaku)
BASE jump without a chute/other high speed/daredevil style accident, with no safety equipment...
wood chipper

and variations of the list exist as well....

if you have other suggestions, feel free to let me know. in the mean time, i'm thinning out my BBM in phases, depending on how much contact info i want to grant you. phase 1 means i don't really talk to you that much. you're only gonna get email. phase 2 will get I.M. SN info, phase 3 will get phone number, and the prior

phase 4 involves eating ice cream off of my chest, you don't really wanna be in phase 4. and if you have to ask, you can't afford it.

anyway, i'm tired of this phone. as i type this, i'm staring at the VZW "boot up" screen. i had just used DM to backup my info, and then add/delete some apps from the phone, and there was some "core" update thing...anyway, i've been staring at this for quite awhile. a lot more than the "this might take 30 mins" warning message....i'm at my wits end with this phone, and i've waited long enough. the fact that it's existed this long since .328 was released by VZW is a sign of my patience. this phone is like a crazy girlfriend. at first its fun. she's cool, and does exciting and new things, which is nice. then it starts to get weird. she's texting you all the time while you're gone, you spend a weekend in vegas with the guys, and she's calling constantly. she starts video taping you sleeping, and then emails you links to the videos she posted on youtube, starts saving your hair and toe nail clippings "in case something happens to you, so she can clone you"....makes false idols in your image....etc. you know, the usual crazy girlfriend stuff. but then it gets worse. much worse. borderline bipolar! that's where i'm at right now. today was the best my memory has ever been since .328. 48 hours and it didn't drop below 25megs....but the performance was horrendous. it lagged, spinny clocky thing a lot, freezing, sluggish response, slow start up time for apps when you open them, etc.

thanks for letting me vent guys. i appreciate it.

and ladies. if you exist...whatever. here's a cute kitten.

NO!!!!

You are leaving us after all this time, Patches? Awe, things were going to get interesting when they announce the Storm 3. My vote is the you should make a slide show of the best moment and worst moments on CB, turn the slide show into a video format, let it use up all of your device memory, and leave your storm in a verizon store with the slide show running on loop (while connected to an in store charger).

Patches...

Have fun with the Eris while RIM leaves the Storm 1 users in the dark

Lol. Let's see if the Verizon Reps will be able to diagnose how to turn the Storm off :P "Try unplugging it!" "It is still turned on!!!" "Plug it back in and try pressing the screen!!!" "How do I plug it in???"

We discussed this! There will be no destroying the Storm! You are sending it to me if your not gonna sell!

Or at the very least donate it to the troops.

-Crush it into small pieces.
-find some shot-gun shells that have been used.
-Reload the primer,powder,then put the pieces of the phone into the casing and crimp it.
-blast it out of a shotgun.
-that is all.

Might I suggest Winchester AA brand. The reload well,and the brass doesn't swell on them.

Send it to me so I can sell it AND mine and maybe make enough money to pay for half the upgrade cost to a Passion!

Never mind...it would probably cost more to ship than a Storm 1 is going to be worth in December...
