Why do I want to switch back to my Storm?

[srvcb]

I have a Storm and a Tour and recently switched back to my Tour because I was having quite a few errors typing, and figured that more memory would be a faster phone. But I still think about switching back to the Storm quite a bit (this ability to switch phones online is one great thing about Verizon).

I'm not sure there is an objective answer, but was wondering what draws people (me included) to the Storm? With the Tour, I've got a better keyboard and more memory. Since replacing my trackball, I have no problems with navigation anymore. I know the Tour's screen is smaller but that's about the only disadvantage I can see.

Just curious what everyone thinks my problem is

I use my boss's Tour and really struggle with keyboard. I am using a Storm 2.

For me, typing is better in the Storm thanks to large buttons. Touch screen makes navigation better and faster. The little ball in the tour ie getting dated. Especially since 5.0. GPS is like having a Garmin in your car thanks to the larger touch screen. Browsing is more enjoyable.

That's just me.

A friend let me play around with her Tour and I found myself touching the screen thinking that was going to do anything! Mt storm has had a few minor issues but come Aufust I will probably go for the Storm 2 anyway unless there are new releases in the works. The Droid looks tempting but anyone have input on the learning curve for that phone? Can I still get my email as fast?

K9 will get you push mail on the droid. Support for IMAP folders further pushes the droid in the opposite direction of RIM, into the 21st century.
