I don't care if i get flamed for this but i'm really sick of hearing ppl complaining and comparing the storm to the ijesus. I understand some of us being mad that the phone doesn't do some simple functions smoothly like text super fast because of the rebound of the screen but don't always say "well the iphone has....." Blackberries are intended to be business devices not virtual beer pourers or fart machines, so don't get mad when it doesn't have a 2000 app application center. If anything just be mad that the storm doesn't allow you to bang out an email as quickly as previous blackberries or that its the only blackberry that wasn't really an improvement to power users but a phone for mainstream consumers. Criticize the blackberry as a business device and not as an iphone killer. I'd much rather have a phone that considered a not too thought out business phone then have a phone that was meant to murder the ijesus but failed LOL. Ok im done rambling

I think you, my friend are in denial...to think that the storm was in NO way shape or form to be an Iphone competitor, thats just ignorant. Plain and simple. The Berries are meant business first, true. But honestly, The storm mimics the iphone....its obvious.. come on...I think your upset because you got the phone and realized it wasnt what you expected, you waited too long and now your stuck, so you want to wine and complain becuase your angry...Grow up...seriously03-17-09 03:00 PM - No i totally think that they released this phone to appeal to the iphone and touchscreen crowd. I'm just saying im tired of seeing every OS leak or pros and cons of the phone always end up in an iphone vs blackberry war. IMHO comparing these two phones is pointless because of how long ago the iphone was released. O and yea my avatar does suit me well thanks for noticing
03-17-09 03:02 PM - LOL, definitely loved that one!nope sorry your past the 30 second return period. If u have insurance i can send you a refurbished 20 seconds but you have to pay a $50 deductible.
Hey man I agree with you...sort of. I just think the comparison is unfair. The iPhone/JesusPhone/miracle-of-the-new-world has had years to be worked and reworked. It wasn't perfect when it first came out either, in fact it was far from perfect. I agree that RIM should've done their homework better, since there was already a phone on the market that they wanted to compete with, and I agree that they need to get a REAL OS update out already. But it would be nice if people want to compare the Storm to the Holy-Grail-phone, then compare the Storm in it's current state, to the iPhone 5 months after it's original launch. Yes that's right haters, the Storm's only been out for 5 freaking months and only had 1 OS update. The fixes have been slow, it's true. RIM needs to step up?...yes, also true. But the iphone is on like it's 3rd hardware version, and who knows how many OS upgrades, so how do you make a comparison between the two? It doesn't make sense.03-17-09 04:57 PM - Fair enough. The Storm is intended to be a business phone, and is not to be compared to the iPhone.

As a business phone, it completely sucks. It is an ill-conceived, poorly thought out, poorly executed, poorly functioning, poorly supported error machine. The only area where it performs really well, is as a dust collector. If you own a business and rely on this ham-handed mess of a phone, your business is probably going to close soon and go bankrupt, unless your business is to collect and preserve dust.
