BB Storm

hands on reviews out… i’m 100% getting one, wish they’d give a fucking price and release date already…

Old news? It’s a fucking cell phone. Sorry it’s not cool anymore, but this is why you and your “hip” iphone are fggts.

Lol runs the iPhone OS according to Vodafone.

lol yea, someone def got fired for that

word was it was supposed to be october 1st…ive been waiting for this to be released…i think it might be my first blackberry

Ughh, I hate the ongoing transition to touch screen by all companies now.

Is touch the absolute future for data phones???

Here is a ton of info on this phone:

Release for the Storm is early/mid November. Rumor of price is $199 with contract.

FYI, debuting with this phone is RIM’s own App Store similar to the Apple App Store.

I can’t wait to try it out. I want to see how easy it is to type with the tactile keyboard.

A lot of rumors flying around are stating November 4th…of course that’ll probably change though.

Na just the current line up to meet the other markets people who hate Apple and dont like the iPhone. The Gphone that is out right now kept the slide out keyboard and I assume it will stay in the future. Some people refuse to change. BB just needed a shot at the iPhone for “sexiness” :stuck_out_tongue:

so when the fuck is this getting released

not for a bit, they just released it internally for testing on friday. lots of software revisions needed apparently.

Ya I’m hearing that there were/are some serious lag issues in the software that they are working on. Sometime before Christmas would be the safe bet.

the one I had my hands on definately had this issue.

oooo. you played with one? Lag issues aside, how was typing on it?

Word on the street is still saying by the end of the month for a release date though. I’m just hoping they don’t rush it and put a total pile on the market.

I have a few months before i can change phones, i still want to try one badly though.

BB looks pretty cool, right now I have a LG VU with touch screen. That works really well, not as well as the iPhone but still good. And I have my email connected to it so it lets me know when I have a email just like a BB.

Surprisingly easy, and cool. The clickable screen was awesome.

not really. If youve never experienced exchange email on a BB… it’s not the same. Once you go Black(Berry) you never go back.
