    I've had the worst luck with my Storms:

    Storm #1 - "END" key fell after 4 days
    Storm #2 - Bottom left and right corners did not click, difficult to activate functions in those areas.
    Storm #3 - 3 of the 4 corners did not click or press in at all
    Storm #4 - Build defect; casing surrounding the side buttons does not fit flush, causing accidental activation of the side convenience keys as well as the "lock" key.

    I really love the phone and all its features, thinking it deserves at least one last shot before the New Year......

    Good luck with the next one I guess. To me it's 3 strikes and then it gets returned, at least you have some patience, I would have thrown it in my fireplace at this point.

    will most providers allow you to get a different model even after thirty days if you are honestly on your fourth or fifth storm and it doesnt work?

    Holy Crap. 5th? I have had no problems at all with my first Storm. Even OS .65 worked well.

    im on my first, but my end key is definitely going to fall off. because the rest of my phone seems to be perfect, when it does fall off im going to try a dab of crazy glue before switching it out. good friend got his same day as me and his has clicking problems, so after messing with his i know how terrible the phone can be with that issue. i can live with a glued end key.

    Phew, thought it was just me having the worst luck with this phone. I've never experienced this many problems with any phone in the past. They were usually good on the 1st try.....

    One more try and then it may be time to ring in the New Year with the Curve.

    I think those that are still waiting for their 1st Storm should have somewhat better luck. Hopefully later production models have all the issues solved.

    On my 1st

    Will ride it out for 30 days before deciding if loose send key is going to make me seek a replacement

    99% sure it won't

    i'm not a whiner

    Still on my first. Much better now that I got .83 working. Hope future updates will fix the typing lag. Its my only real complaint.

    guys if u only got a problem of having either the send or end key "loose" and everything else is perfect, than u can replace it yourself i rem seeing a site that sells the oem keypad for like 10 bulks i believe with instructions it better than getting a replacement with more faulty parts...

    Yeah but I'm a complete klutz with my hands

    Asking me to superglue an oem keypad down is most likely going to ruin the device

    I'm on my first. It's all good. My side keys aren't flush, but are any? I haven't accidentally hit them at all.
