    ok so you know how if you just hit the end key while watching a movie or a listing to a song tor looking at pictures then you go back to media it takes you right back to the last thing you where looking at. well me and my wife well to keep it pg where lets say playing she graps my storm and makes some vids. I was at work the next day and was sitting in the breakroom and thought hey i think i will watch the rest of reno 911 wich i had started the previous day (keep in mind i did not know she had watched the video afterwords) so i hit now playing phone locks up with vid full volume and like a ***** i am hitting end mute. i am so embarassed i cant even get the fracking battery door of to do a reset and in walks my boss and the regional dir. yea not a good day.

    This is why we have Video Cameras . . . lol that sucks man.

    i dont think i have had an embarassing moment with my phone.

    I was out with some people at a bowling alley and it was one of those things where they turn the lights off so its all glowy and what not. something funny happened and a friend of mine pulled out his iphone to take a pic and said he forgot to turn on the flash then i reminded him he didnt have flash and proceeded to take the picture

    Aaand that's why he said he didn't have any embarrassing stories.

    Sitting in an hour long meeting with my entire department (supervisors, managers, etc.). Then suddenly having my Storm play the last song played, which was Slayer, blasting on its speaker for no ******* reason. Then, while trying to unlock the phone (because it can apparently play music while still locked) it hangs for 10 seconds or so until I had to rip out the battery to force it to shut off.

    I hate this ******* phone.

    in the industry, we call that "user error"...you have .75, therefore you fail! lol!

    While attending the IRL Race at Kansas Speedway, I ran into Danica Patrick on pit road. I asked if I could get a photo, she said "sure". After fittling with the camera, it refused to take a photo. She got annoyed that it was taking so long and began walking away. By the time it took the photo, all I got was her walking away. I posted the photo in the "share your Storm pics thread"

    what kinda stupid phone is this? how can you put up with this foolishness all the time?

    storm = joke

    and people say its a business phone. haha

    Same goes for your iToy. However, if it makes you feel any better, if and when Verizon offers the iPhone, I will consider purchasing it and using it for my personal phone and entertainment device and use my Storm as my business phone.

    Well it's not the phone did.....

    While talking to me moms, dropping the kids off to the pool (so to speak) and having a smoke (common pratice, don't judge me) A call on the other end came through. Tried to click over, of course I couldn't (stupid talklock) Needless to say, I created RIM newest project...

    What's with all the slow camera stories? I am usually picky about how the camera works since I am a photography buff, and with the stock .75 OS I can take pics pretty fluently, unless it's really dark. I noticed trouble in .148 with focusing, but it takes pics in about a millisecond. You do know it has a two stage shutter button, right?

    It's about the only thing that frustrates me over anything else. However, when it does work, it takes some fantastic looking photos. It doesn't fail alot, but it does get frustrating at times.

    That is some serious multitasking.

    ***

    Worst thing that ever happened to me was when I was using the factory phone lock and my co-worker wanted to play with the phone, he accidently made an emergency call - then hung up and didn't tell me!

    Needless to say I was not too excited to explain to the 911 dispatcher WHO CALLED RIGHT BACK that my co-worker and his fat fingers could not unlock my phone.

    When I first got my phone, my manager wanted to see it to try and troubleshoot an issue other users were having trying to access the company intranet. Well just seconds before I was surfing a porn site! So as soon as he went to the browser he got a face full of T & A!

    Good thing I'm good at what I do and we have a pretty good relationship, cause I'm sure I would have been out on my azz other wise.

    The Storm really is a toy, for people who tinker and get a kick out of running "leaked" OS builds.

    Err no, the same does not go for the iphone. It doesnt freeze, lag or bring up a clock everytime you tell it to do something.

    LOL, son take a roadtrip on over to Apple's forums or ihatemyiphone. When your done reading all of the complaints about lags, freezes, dropped calls and "this phone is a piece of **** and/or (insert name here)", you will notice that the opinions and problems/complaints by iPhone users really are not much different than the rants/raves section here.

    or just google "i hate my iphone"-

    I can't wait until Verizon releases this so called "mesiah OS". I can already see your posts now.

    My roommate's iPhone froze last night. He's had it for about a month or so and it has froze twice...on me anyway when I try using it for the games he has (Who Wants to be a Millionaire is awesome....when its working).

    Anyway back on topic. I haven't had any embarrassing moments. I've had some envious iPhone owners (only because I could send and receive pictures, although she'll be able to as well once she gets 3.0).

    It's not really an embarrassing moment, just something I do so my friends (regardless of what phone they have, iPhone, Storm, rotary device, etc) can all laugh. My phone has a HUGE scratch along the screen from when I dropped it (yes I was **** drunk), but it still works.

    My friends just say "Why not get another one?". My response? I say "This is my FIRST Blackberry Storm, I'll say that again because I feel it bears repeating, this is my FIRST Blackberry Storm that I've had since the DAY IT WAS RELEASED! I have a strong bond with this thing, I haven't thrown it through a window, spit at it, or wanted to throw it into a raging fire. I don't care if it has a massive crack in the screen, IT WORKS! If I get another Blackberry Storm who knows what that crazy thing will do or how it'll work. This one works and so I'm sticking with this one until it just falls apart in my hand...or until my 2 year contract is up."

    It's particularly amusing when I say that to my friends who have Storms...they actually understand where I'm coming from.

    Trying to show a friend a video on the phone and everytime I was going to play it the phone would freeze. I just wished this phone would work.EVEN with. Did I miss something .148 isn't an improvment. I guess you were just playing with us when all these betas were better.
