    So, I've been on my honeymoon the past two weeks and have been completely shut off from the entire tech world. I'm getting the storm in about a week and was wondering if somebody could give me some info on updates that have come out since the release. I did play with OS...65 and am anxious for the updates. Anything you guys can throw out there would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    I've been reading...catching up on 2 weeks immediately after a hyped release through the forums is kinda difficult. I asked for a brief rundown of what's happened since the release.
    Ps, I was still around the weekend the phone dropped.

    new official software .75

    many people needing to resend there service books after updates cause there things weren't working.

    a couple bricked phones during update (most of them resolved)

    few people have received replacement phones for problems.

    Few people returned there phones

    alot of people like there phones but are anxious for updates.

    We complain about the little amount of application room that rim gave us (not horrid but could use more)

    the phones awesome its only going to get better.

    tons of free wallpapers and ringtones.

    official threads on how to get it working on tmobile and at&t with edge

    and a crap ton more of threads of either people hating it or loving it.


    hope this helps.

    Here is your summary:

    "Storm Sucks"

    "No it doesn't"

    "Sent my Storm Back"

    "Love My Storm"

    No less than one million new posts entitled: "HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    And that is pretty much it.

    Congrats on the wedding and all kidding aside have a enjoy a wonderful marriage.

    Personally, I don't think its possible to accurately describe this forum over the last two weeks in one concise post. But, good attempts so far.

    My attempt: It's been a communal Love/Hate fest. (I'm on the Love side)

    Oh, and Congratulations!

    Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks guys!
    Btw, from my 10 minutes playing the day before release, I'm leaning toward the love it side, particularly if the OS updates have helped.

    The OS updates have solved a lot of issues. I love my phone. I have said it before and I will probably say it again. People who can't program a timer on a microwave will not love the Storm. If you have common sense and think it through and just take some time to get used to the Storm (i.e. practice typing with it for an hour) then you won't have any problems at all.

    Mordback is exactly right.. I think you will enjoy the phone much more if
    you have at least a little technical aptitude.. Ie able to program
    The dvr or microwave.. Lol

    The past couple weeks have certainly brought out the best and worst
    In people. People complaining about absolutely anything.. **** I just saw
    A thread with some guy losing hope because he just ordered the phone
    on the 5th and it didn't ship over the weekend!! Wtf!

    My advice to you... Get the phone and ignore all the whining on the
    forums.. Spend some time with it and form your own opinion...

    I am enjoying my storm for the most part.. Although typing out this reply
    Has been a frustrating experience.. Lol

    Good luck and congrats!
