Played with one today for about ten minutes.

Not impressed. I’ll be keeping my Curve. One-handed web browsing is inconceivable on the Storm.

If you wish Verizon had the iPhone, buy a Storm, but I’m pretty sure people who currently have Blackberrys will be disappointed.

I have a voyager, the storm is tempting but I think you have to have a “blackberry plan” to have one…

so you have to pay an extra $20 to be able to do this. Are you really burning through that many minutes? And don’t you have a company cell phone?

I’m telling all of you, HTC Touch pro can do everything that any blackberry, treo or Iphone can do, it can do it better, and it can do lots more. And you don’t have to have a cock hanging out of the side of your mouth to own one.

Mark being the only exception, because he is a true baller.

my problem is cell reception in my house, i get little to none when the trees have leaves. If i can route my calls over the internet over my cell phone then my reception problem is solved.

I’m fine in your neighborhood, but the beginning and end of Sloop get me every time. Especially the Rochester end.
