Blackberry Storm 9530 feedback

The Storm gets a bad rap because people are either impatient or are expecting too much out of it...

Keep your open apps to a minimum and it'll run smooth. Tweak the touchscreen sensitivity and the touchscreen keyboard will be 90% as fast as buttons. The only thing that tends to get me held up is if I hit the symbols button while typing fast....

I've had it lock up once and it was my own damn fault having like 12 apps open.

Just take into consideration there will be a learning curve with it. You have 30 days to return it if you don't like it (for like a 35$ restocking fee though)...

My only REAL gripe with it is the touchscreen while calling someone. If you pinch it between your ear and shoulder, you stand a good chance of pushing the mute button.

Still looking to how to get around that... Other than bluetooth obviously.

Me and my fiance both have a Storm and they've been extensions of our hand since we got them. We love them.
