BlackBerry Storm 1 Switchers
I have some questions for those of you who have switched from the BlackBerry Storm to the Droid.
1) Compared to the Storm how easy are the menus to navigate?
2a) How is the web browsing experience?
2b) Will most websites appear on the droid as they do on my PC?
2c) Will the droid browser show flash video?
3) Are there a lot of free applications that are useful, are paid applications overpriced like many are on the BlackBerry platform?
4) I know the droid has a 5mp camera but how good are the pictures in a "real life" situation?
5) Are you pleased with your decision to switch from the Storm to the Droid?
6) What do you miss about the Storm?
7) What would you like the Droid to have that it does not currently have?
Went back Storm1 for a few more weeks
I'm one of those lucky ones who had a positive experience with the STORM1.
I used it for a year with no major problems and it worked every day. Yes it reboots by itself sometimes and has a few other quirks, but it works and I never lost or missed a call in a year. However, last month I switched to the Droid Eris to see what the big deal was. While I was impressed with the android system it is completly different then BB. The internet experience was much better than BB. I was happy with the Android system but after 29 days I returned the Droid Eris and went back to the old Storm1. Mainly due to the Eris being to small and slow. Now I have to use my Storm until another android phone comes out that I like.
Returning to BB was like being with an old friend again. I know the STORM1 has way to many problems to keep using it much longer but it just feels so much better for me right now.
I think anyone interested in switching to another phone or operating system should just pick a phone and try it out. Only you will be able to determine if you like something. You can always switch back and it will only cost a few bucks. :)
