    Here's a link to Mossberg's review of the Storm. He is a huge Apple lover but doesn't kill the Storm. He sites biggest drawbacks as being thicker, heavier and no wifi. I hope you all can read this (not sure if you need a subscription to the Wall Street Journal online). If you can't read I can copy and paste the article.

    edit: Ok, I copied the link from his website instead of the WSJ since you need a subscription there.

    I am an Apple fan myself (but HATE AT&T so just couldn't make the switch to iPhone). He does mention that if you like the Verizon network this is a great option if you are looking for an iPhone comprable phone.

    I was actually a bit surprised at the review because of his obvious bias towards Apple. I consider this an outstanding review when taking into account his preferences.

    Don't you like how his idea of "significantly thicker" is .07" He says the same thing about the weight (Storm is a whopping .8 ounces heavier). I don't know if I'll notice the difference myself.

    He said it was laggy... But dismissed it saying the production one will be fixed!!! I doubt it!

    That's funny. I didn't even think of counting how many times he mentions that.

    Damn I was counting too! I got 28 tho. Either way, the problem with his reviews is that every other line is about the iphone. I wanna know how this phone stands up on its own...not against the iphone.
