A Storm 1 is OLD, ANCIENT in fact, in smart phone years, so why would you have an issue if your old, first generation, phone does not work with a brand new, .0 level, OS? You knew, going in to your S1 purchase, that it had X amount of memory and that there were competing phones with more memory (assuming that memory will be the key issue with preventing 6.0 from working on the S1). And today, compared to then, phones have significantly more memory. So, there should be no surprise when a new OS comes out that requires new memory, it makes sense to write OSs that take advantage of the advancements with the hardware. The Storm 1 first came out in November, 2008. The 6.0 OS is scheduled for release this summer (they're saying June, but I'll believe that when I see it), so why should it be such an issue that a big step up with an OS, not work on a 2 year old phone's technology?
If you find Android "more appealing" than by all means, you should go for it. I'm sure it's a fine device.
