    I am sure Verizon did not make the name... If you hate it, call it by its real name.

    I like the name Storm. I mean what's Iphone about? Must they put 'I' in front of everything they do. The new IMac. Come on peoples. sucky name. Although, the Thunder sounds better. Isn't that what's it called for euorope? And I know I misspelled purpose ^^

    It was created because someone said the phone would

    "Take the world by storm"

    Then the name storm just stuck. I personally don't mind its name.

    It's just a name... call it a 9530 if you want. We have bigger issues with this phone right now than the name you know!

    It definitely sounds better with "Blackberry" in front of it.

    The Blackberry Storm!

    Anything with Blackberry in front of it sounds expensive, feature rich, and important.

    Options > Advanced Options > Applications. If you click on BlackBerry 4.7 Core Applications (which should be the first) or BlackBerry 4.7 System Software (second). You will see at the top in the description it still says Thunder Series. So you can still call it Thunder if you want.

    Yeah, Storm is pretty generic and vague. I kind of liked the Thunder name though. Thunder has more ooomph to it. blackberrynews.com/2008/10/19/the-facts-behind-the-naming-of-the-blackberry-storm

    I'm glad we've brought post count into the mix for no reason....Post counts should just be hidden here, it'd make convos less juvenile.
