So when are we going to have that serious discussion?

I think maybe your expectations were set a bit high, which gave the phone no chance. Maybe you were expecting that the Storm was going to be the first device to be the perfect combination of both software and hardware, flawless in form and function? Or maybe you were hoping for it?
I really like the storm. It may not be the fastest phone, or have the best battery life. But once you stop testing it and start using it, it's pretty cool. It has an amazing screen, it's a great size and weight and is a really nice looking phone. Are there things I don't like? Of course. But there are a lot less negatives than there are positives.
To be fair, here are a some things I don't like about the phone: It's a bit slow at times, but that's usually when I'm testing it and trying to make it do something stupid; the battery life does suck, but this is my first smart phone so I have nothing to compare it to; the build quility of the phone is great, except for the buttons - they seemed to go a bit cheap on those; the click screen scares me a little bit - couldn't they put a freakin gasket around the screen to prevent the wobble, light leak and dust issues?
Even still, I think this is a really nice phone, so I'm willing to roll the dice that upcoming software updates will take care of some of the bugs. If not, the next best thing will be out when the time comes.
