    I’ve heard really good things about the video playback…I just really hope that we’re not let down, because it’s quite important to a lot of people.

    So far, I think that the storm is counter intuative. I can’t figure out how to get numbers that have called become contacts. I can’t get certain letters to type. The turorial has no sound, and is not detailed enough. Either is the unstruction manual. Very frustrated!

    i agree with counter intuitive. love the potential just have find it. cd instruction was to skeletal. agree with earlier comment, how do you save a phone number when someone has called you. i lost a number of calls thinking they were held there until officially saved. if that is the case which should be a standard considering phones of a lesser god have this very beneficial feature.

    in knots.

    After 3 Palms and 4 Blackberry PDA’s I feel I know a bit about these things and bar none the storm is the worst PDA I have EVER owned. A true engineering disaster. I have never seen a product that has so many faults. The technology that is inside is difficult at best to access due to counter intuitive and often inconsistent and/or bizzare commands strings. The touch screen might work for a small 16 year old, or so you would think (my hands which are average size can not connect correctly nor consistently with the buttons) but I let my blackberry user 16 old daughter try it and she couldn’t do it either. When I saw Palm’s new product was announced at CES, my heart sunk knowing I will be chained to this pre-beta-ish piece of junk for another 2 years. My advice: go short on blackberry stock.

    Good Evening,
    I have been reading the blogs above. I have nothing good to say about my storm or better yet my 5th “thats right” Iam on my 5th storm in just a matter of weeks. The storm freezes up daily, the click screen….What were they thinking. It is always crashing. If I mistype and have to go back to correct my mistake, it is all but impossible. I just start over. Please Blackberry…come up with something to fix the storm. This is my first B.B. and by far it will be my last unless B.B. comes up with something, and fast to fix their junk of a device.

    I am working on my third Blackberry Storm. The other two had hardware issues. All three suffer from a combination of an operating system and hardware which do not work well together. This phone freezes and crashes more often than early windows operating systems did which is really saying something. The virtual keyboard is inaccurate at best. Blackberry had a good idea but they rushed it to market, they clearly did not test this phone well before its release. Consumers should not be guinea pigs. I like Blackberry as a company but shame on them for releasing this phone for sale.

    have had my storm for a little over 2 weeks and i absolutely love it! people complain too much and i got a lot of grief for getting the storm. it has worked perfectly for me. ADVICE: you need to turn the phone off everyday! instead of doing that there is a little free app called Quick Pull. It is like doing a battery pull every night. you set it for the time you want; i do mine at 3:30 am every day….i have to say though that i new the guy at verizon and he downloaded it for me right away. no freezes. no problems. i just wish there were more apps.

  • steve said:

Verizon tries to re-sync desktop etc I uninstall re-install from verizon sit. RIM’s site. I have disables Norton. Windows firewall. HELP! I am about to go to the curve.
