I’m thinking about piking up the 9700 coming from the iPhone.

So who’s running a hybrid on an 8330? I’m trying one today, if that doesnt make me happy, back to 4.5 :frowning:

a palm user is really gonna be the first one to post this?

Storm 2 is now available, http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/controller?item=phoneFirst&action=viewPhoneDetail&selectedPhoneId=5067

i’m checking out the new storm on lunch, also upgraded mine to 5.0.0.328, the swipe scroll bounce is semi annoying, but overall a solid release.

i’m also not a huge fan of the new SMS interface but its not bad

new tour software needs to come out now!!! WTF

you DONT like threaded SMS?

since I had a modern day phone… (i keed), mine was already threaded. But now the space in which i have to type is shrunk down significantly to the point that it is very cluttered which is pretty absurd given I have a full screen.

edit: oh and for the storm 2, I am not completely sold on the new touch feel. it seems like i have to press way harder on it and i don’t like the removal of the physical buttons at the bottom. if the original storms didn’t have dead spots i would have to say i like the original much more.

So today I hop on my computer and when I do my blackberry desktop icon pops up and notifys my saying new phone device software 5.01 upgrade now available. It takes for ever, downloads and then i restart the computer and its gone?

It said new 5.01 software for the phone wtfffff and now its gone

Those keyboards seem really small and I have pretty beefy fingers. How do you guys compare touch screens vs keyboards?

I type about 3x faster on keyboards, with less mistakes. I too have beefy fingers…

Awesome, I think with that, I will be ordering my tour tonight :tup:

I am still having this issue. No files sent via bbm 5.0 will download. this is happening with everyone on my contact list.

I was trying to view some youtube vids earlier today and it comes back with “Cannot play media while Alert is active.” I never had this issue before.

Thoughts anyone?

so im running what i believe the be the newest hybrid. (5.0.0.230/.238/.277/.296/.323/.328)

spent the last 4 hours deleting random crap .cod files i dont need (themes, ringtones, setup, etc).

I now boot with 30.x mb free

Nevermind. Reboot fixed it

Does anyone on here have a Curve for Verizon they want to sell? My Tour got destroyed, and I was too cheap/confident for insurance. That was a good choice…

Just got a care package from RIM. Yay new phone!

what did you get? and is it a bribe to keep you from going droid?

finally got a tour. not a bribe, they just send me devices when they can.
