I suppose you whipped out your Storm and showed her what .109 goodness was like right? LOL! I would have.

There is a decent chance, but really probably not anytime soon. I would guess next fall at the absolute earliest.

Lesson learned; VZW reps do not know what they are talking about.

Especially if it supports OpenGL ES. The Storm does, hardware wise. Quite impressive graphics specs, once they're tapped.

OS 5 has been in development from .... hmmm lets just say a while ago It is being developed for all 9X devices, as well as the majority of 8X devices.

Just so this doesnt ramble on, DO NOT expect this to land anytime soon. Its no where near deployment... At all for any device.

Also 5 is not being developed with the Storm in mind, as its cross platform. There is no brand new, from the ground up, OS being developed. RIM spent more money that anyone can imagine to develop one of the most secure operating systems ever. Why fix what isnt broken.

I believe radioguinea was not just talking about the OS for the Storm. He's talking about BB's OS in general. You can't argue with that statement because BB has been known to be the most secured and stable OS on the market. Yes, the Storm has had its hiccups, but its still a secured OS. It just needs work with being fast and stable. Which they are obviously working on right now!

On a security standpoint, its been perfect. So no, its not broken

Hey Radio.

Is it entirely possible that 6.0 is in the works in the back of someones mind?

6.0 is as far away as 5.0 is.

Non issue until it even gets remotely close to where it might be relevant. How did all of this talk start?

Only reason I ask is because people will start to expect it tommorow if they keep hearing about it.

Just as a general comment... I like to think of fixing things that aren't broken as "progress"..

In this sense, wrong. You cant mess with an almost flawless (I say almost because there were only a slight few security issues found internall and plugged) OS.

Try and hack the OS, to get it to do what you want.
