:c:fl:c
Gess!! Such hostility toward the Pearl!!

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

yes...I hate mine too

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

mine just went active this morning. there is already an update for it available. i'll post my impressions after the review.

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Ooops.....I use the Palm software, not outlook....any way to sync the two?

Yep.

Well....we went to our local store yesterday and they didn't have any Storm's. They never got any in the first place supposedly. And I picked up an EnV for mrsreindeer and I'm kicking myself already because I realized after the fact that I could have possibly ordered through you Jay...can we?

For the enV, they charged $169 with a $50 mail-in rebate for signing up for another 2 years...I come home to find a Verizon ad saying that after rebate, the enV is $79. WTF! :mad::fl:mad:

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Yep, just pull from Palm into Outlook and then sync to BB... :ss

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

You definitely don't want me to post how I really feel... :fl:fl:fl

Let's just say I will take a very sick pleasure in destroying every piece of my pearl much like they did in Office Space... only I won't be using bats and shoes... just my hands and it will be a bloody mess! :fl:fl

As for the storm I may have to wait just a tad longer... I blew my budget on CCs... too damn many good deals lol and the storm will be there later the deals may not, at least that was my justification... :D:D

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

ROFL

:r:r:r

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Can't pick mine up until Wednesday :fl

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

I noticed if you order on-line the ship date is pushed out to the 15/12.

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

I saw that, pretty bad.

I pre-ordered from Best Buy, but they took more pre-orders then the amount of phones they were getting in apparently.

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Typical BS...sell more than you have just in case so you can cover your a$$... never mind the customer...:mad::fl I get so sick of these stores... I just wanna smack 'em around a bit.. :bx:bx

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

in all fairness VZW ordering said we would have as many as we wanted. then they all the sudden cut our orders in half.

BTW, after playing with this phone it's not worth it. a curve will do the same stuff 100X better. if you still want one i should have more coming in way before the 15th. we had to take care of locals fist though and then i can start sending them out. i can do 50$ off the price generally.

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Yea i've been hearing that for heavy users its not so good. Im not a heavy user yet (a couple emails, some web surfing), probably not for a couple of years. Its not worth the $600 im paying for it, but whatever, its cool and i want it haha :ss

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

I got mine today...Its a great change from the LG Chocolate I had!

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

I'm leaning more toward the new I-Phone! Has wi-fi, multiple apps; connection issues and dropped calls are much less now!:)

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

So i've had the phone for about a day now. Its pretty damn cool. Had to cut up some paper to put behind the battery to improve the clicking. The contacts list is pretty plain looking but thats a blackberry thing. Its a fingerprint magnet too, but I put a screen protector on it, but everything else just wipes off with a microfiber cloth. Its also pretty slow and laggy, but that will hopefully be fixed with the updates.

I listed all the bad thing s about it haha but i like it.

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Nice. I'm just waiting for Jeremy to get some in.

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Any more feedback, I heard they put out some update to help with some of the intial issues, I don't know what those issues were if there were any at all.

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

I actually returned mine today. The update did help though. It was alot faster and 10 times better then when I bought it. But I had some hardware problems and from what I read online it would take more then 1 return to find one that works perfectly. This was mainly the click screen and not clicking properly the whole way around the screen. I'm eligible for and official upgrade in august and will most likely buy the Storm again. By then all the bugs should be worked out. I really did love the phone and if you get one thats perfect then it would be a great phone.

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

That's why I still have my Curve... :ss

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Thats what I want to buy now. I posted in WTB forum. How do you like it? You have Verizon?

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Yep, it's great! I saw the WTB and chuckled a little... :D

I guess I got lucky with mine...it works perfect.. Getting used to
The typing is a bit weird though... I would say get one to anyone who was
On the fence...

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

The hype is WAY too much!

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

for now at least

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

I really want one, but I think I may wait a few months for the bugs to get worked out.

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

I ended up just buying the iPhone :D

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

correction, Katie ended up buying you the iPhone :salute:

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

lol, you are correct sir :ss

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

I'm going to fondle it later today :D

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Haha

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

i've only been getting like 2 a week so far and they are all gone withing 10 minutes.

they are junk. the curve is such a better phone. i can't believe how they screwed this one up so bad.

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Sounds like they were rushing to get this baby out before the holidays :hn

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

could be that VZW didn't help by crippling it.

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Also the original iPhone was not flawless ;)

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

very true...hell the 3G iPhone isn't flawless

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

still on the fence on this, I've seen both and like both what a decision.

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Me too.
With my Verizon credits, the Storm will run me $50 v. $300 for the iPhone.
iPhone just seems so much nicer but AT&T is my cell company for my business cell phone and they are inferior next to Verizon for service/reception.

No WiFi on the Storm.
No text message with photo on the iPhone but with my MacBook, it only makes sense to get the iPhone.
No speaker on the iPhone but one on the Storm.
For iTunes, the iPhone is better.
For iPhoto, the iPhone also takes the prize.
For gadgets, I think the iPhone is also the winner.
Just sucks that one is stuck with AT&T and the major price difference that can be enough for a nice box of Cuban Churchills.:D

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

I really don't like that the storm doesn't have wifi. Plus, I really like my ipod touch, which is the iphone w/ out the phone. Only problem is the cancellation fee to switch to att and then $70 or whatever it is a month for the bill.

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Jim,
I am lucky in that regard I guess as my contract with Verizon is up in January.
I just need to be patient another 30 days or so.

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Get the Storm and a box of Cuban Churchills :D Im leaning towards the iPhone but rather not switch to ATT
Wifi really isn't that big of deal for me

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

I would get the storm as well... Using it for your mp3 player is easy... when you open the blackberry updates you see a section to sync your BB with itunes and then magically all your music appears on your BB... I just added all my music to the BB and will probably sell my ipod soon as it has become obsolete... :D

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

Which phone is faster, Storm or new I-Phone?

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

on the 3G network both are the same, on wifi is where the iPhone wins, I don't have access to wifi that often

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

I wonder if you can pick up the internet on Blackberry in remote locations?

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

I'm guessing if you have bars you can

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

they were even talkin about this on Tom Leykis the other day...

I like my iPhone...it just works so great with my mac! and I love my mac!

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

If the iPhone was available on VZW I would have one

Re: Blackberry Storm
 

I'm like you, Perry, in that I have much better reception & customer support with VZ. Had ATT for several years before that and lots of dropped calls, reception problems in certain areas, etc. Maybe they will have the bugs worked out in another year when I'm ready to upgrade from my BB Pearl.
