- I got my wife a Behold for Christmas, it implements the flick scrolling, and I really dont like it. It's too fast, and usually scrolls past what it is you're looking for. The Storms scrolling is great IMO01-02-09 02:53 AMLike 0

Compared to the iPhone, the Storm touch display usage still sucks bigtime. It could get better but I think that RIM is concentrating on sorting out the bugs first and of course fixing them.
I personally think that RIM put the Storm too early on the market, maybe because they thought it is the right moment now(christmas shopping, financial crisis not as bad as it will be next year, no new spectacular phone from competition available, etc.).
I'd say that the Storm needs another two or three firmware updates until it is really "usable" for the tough business user.
I almost sold my Storm because of the bad reception quality but with the .83 firmware, RIM apparently improved the reception signal strength substantially, so I'm going to keep it, even if the touch usage isn't even close to iPhone comfort right now.01-02-09 06:06 AMLike 0 -

In any case, the major point here is that the carriers have almost total discretion over when a cell phone is released. Apple is very much the oddity in that they will sell the Jesus Phone directly. Virtually no other cell phone maker will do that, they ONLY sell to carriers and then the carriers decide when to launch, how much to charge, etc.01-02-09 11:11 AMLike 0 - The whole financial crisis thing sounds good, but Verizon had this planned months ago before the crisis really started. To put together all those TV ads, print ads, and produce a few million units for launch, they would have had to of made the decision to launch back around June or earlier. Right around the time the media really started sensationalizing things by calling it a financial crisis or meltdown or some other scary sounding word. It's bad, but it's not exactly a crisis or meltdown.01-02-09 11:16 AMLike 0

I bought my Storm on the first day because I was in desperate need of a phone. My Razr's display screen was almost gone and I knew that I didn't want to wait an addtional 2 years to buy a Blackberry, so I went with the new product. I had already read about some of the things that were wrong with it.
I have had some glitches here and there, but for the most part, it's been okay. I am hoping that each revision will make it better and better.01-02-09 11:27 AMLike 0
