I was looking at the new verizon site and now the dimesions for the storm
say 2.2 compared to the 2.4 reported before. Also if you watch the 360 degree tour
it looks more narrow doesn't seem to show as much silver (or chrome) on the sides?
Not that it's a big deal, just something I noticed.

guess they did some trimming lol, what else got taken out? lol

[RobUM2011]

They must have removed the Flux Capacitor... that's a little disappointing...

[jaykav99]

lol wheres the thread "flux capacitor vs wifi which would you want?" lol

[Mike01gsr]

I want the Mr. Fushion options so I can run it off of banana peels...lol

it got shorter too! i remember it was a tad longer than curve, now it shorter!! and if you look at the deminsions pic, there is now gap between screen and bottom buttons???

hope this hasent been posted yet

If you look at the gap it looks smaller.... or is it just me??

[lakerboi32]

sure did buddy

This turned into a very purposeless thread.

The dimensions differ on the Blackberry site and the Verizon site...The Blackberry site has the Storm slightly bigger than what Verizon lists...

Yeah, according to VZ site it is smaller in every dimension than the curve

Storm 2.2 x 4.1 x .5
Curve 2.4 x 4.2 x .6

I'd love that, but it can't be right

[dgalanter]

Verizon is listing 2.2 by 4.1 by .5... 2.2 by 4.1 is my LG Dare... so that doesn't sound right to me.

Of course it got narrower.

Remember your physics, specifically Einstein's theory of relativity? The Storm has a faster processor than most previous Blackberrys. As objects speed up, and approach the speed of light, they look smaller to an observer on the outside. Eventually, if they went fast enough they would appear have vanished.

I took a little poetic license with Einstein's theory

this why no wifi they reshaped:-)

i cant wait to get mine to go back to 1955

I've noticed some of the pictures on Verizon's updated site are showing pictures of it that look more similar to an iPhone in dimension than the shorter, wider (compared to iphone) picture that appeared on the mail-out postcard I received weeks ago. I wonder what that's about.

[monkeynuts]

Often you US guys and gals say that Verizon restrict some features of their phones in order to make more money. Maybe this is the Ultiamte version of that... you have to pay an additional monthly subscription to get the extra 0.2 x 0.1 x 0.1 inches of plastic

Excellent poimt. Also, considering that the U S Dollar isn't worth as much, we don't get as much Storm for our dollar.

LOL! Think how much it'll be worth after we vote for "change" and become the People's Republic of America after today...

But as long as the screen doesn't get any smaller, I'm ok with the rest of the chassis
