Storm sounds great. However, I would feel stigmitized using it since The Joker at the WH uses one.

why does everything new go to at&t first?

sorry but… at&t sucks. i know this from experience. i give them props for being 90 times better than tmobile but.. they still suck. just as someone said, they rave about the fastest 3g network but if youre not in the HEART of one of those cities, youre NOT getting 3g. ANYWHERE other than a city with at&t youre going to get 2g (edge). we just started to get into 4g/wimax speeds and at&t’s (beep) is STILL mostly in 2g. i never was really a verizon fan but you have to give it to them. verizon is the best as we speak in network speed and WAY more 3g network than any of the others. if apple and other companies would introduce their products to CDMA companies first, they would be a better success. look… see? even that new garmin nuvi phone is coming out. who do they choose to promote their product first? at&t. i dont get it..

i guess apple finally bumped their heads and decided to make the iphone available to verizon. its just a fact- CDMA is better than GSM.

ok… but i wasnt even on topic with the discussion. honestly… im not a fan of the iphone or anything of apple to be exact. why- i dont know but if i had to choose, as a guy, id have to go with the blackberry storm, bugs or not.

First of all, the reason why they’re working on a storm 2 already is because it’s an all touchscreen model, with no physical buttons (call/menu/back/end), which does not have the surepress technology.

The Storm is coming up on it’s one year anniversary and it’s been vastly improved from it’s original state. For those of you that still hate on the Storm, you’ve violated the cardinal rule of new technology: don’t push it aside because it’s buggy at it’s launch, stick with it and see how it improves. The Storm 5.0 betas are amazing and it’s going to reach a peak before the end of this year. If you’ve refused to check out the Storm because of the rumors, give it a chance, its a phenomenal device with a one-of-a-kind touchscreen.

I work with phones every day, and though there are never any guarantees with the quality of any device, I’ve never seen a company build on what they’ve started like RIM does. They do a phenomenal job and I place a lot of faith in their ability to innovate.

So many rumors. If the new Storm 2 does not change the screen I will move to make the Iphone work somehow in my plans.

I came here by searching google. The thing is that a friend who works verizon complimented my storm. Then told me to return it soon and wait for the second generation to come out. He said that his call center is getting hit by users who have some issue with their phone. He said that they are looking to release a newer curvier storm to fix some issues and upgrade the phone. Looking for more info cuz I just got my storm and don’t want to keep it if a new one will be coming out soon. Oh and this comment is written on a storm.

If you believe this post, you’re only subjecting yourself to hype. The Blackberry Storm doesn’t even have solid ground yet…RIM will surely make sure that has a solid application foundation before it pushes towards more devices. Surely there’s going to be new devices, but I’d say the Storm has the RIM spotlight for the next 1 1/2 years.

First get the Bold, then if you can hold out a little longer, wait the 2nd or 3rd Gen Storm. It will be SOOOOO worth it!

Does it still require middle ware to collaborate?…

Then forget it. Until Blackberry removes the need for middleware, the BB is at the bottom of my list.

How in the world you have 2nd and 3rd generation in the works and you can’t even get the 1st generation out the door and in the market….unbelievable in my opinion.

By: Sc rew U BGR

BGR is a phoney. Mr VZW/RIM Hater here is releasing “Independent Sources” who seem to know something about this.

Besides, who cares if there is a successor. Of course there is a follow up. But did BGR report that the original iPhone was a dumbed down, appless, 3G-less version because ATT had (*and still does*) a crappy 3G network.

If you keep waiting for the next big thing — you’ll be waiting forever. You waited for the apple iPhone, then heard there was an iPhone 3g. Then Blackberry started talking about the Thunder/Storm. Now there is rumor of an iPhone VZW or maybe the Blackberry Storm 2 and then 3.

Let’s think of this logically. What good does launching them anywhere close do for Blackberry? How long has the Pearl been out? Yeah, they launched a few updates to it, but its been like 3 years.

Remember also, ATT said they had the best coverage, least dropped calls, and fastest 3G network. This was all based on “Independent Sources.” If you use them, you know none of that is true.

And of course Sprint is SOL. I’m waiting for the Bold let alone the Storm or Storm v2!

“1GB of RAM so your precious apps don’t cause memory leaks”

more memory == less memory leaks?

umm, that’s not how it works.

more memory simply means more memory for bad apps to leak. fix the apps to fix the memory leaking.

DIMS AND NICKELS PRINCIPLE

Because of this principal the storm is actually competing with its line existing Blackberries or even the Bold, but not iphone or the X1 or HTC’s Pro’s, so they wanted to apologize for not meeting expectations to compete with iphone, but now they want you to buy this current model and sign a contract for 3 years! Then next two months they would release a new model (Might meet expectations) that you have to pay $$$$ full price same as the iphone…..4GB, 6GB, 8GB..

IT’S MORE APOLOGETIC… NOT TO BRING HOPE

O.k. I’m calling bullshit. I doubt very seriously that RIM would disclose to you, or any other blogger this kind of information. It absolutely makes no sense. The Storm hasn’t even been released, much less given a release date or price, and their already working on something that will so called “blow the doors off of it? And what independent sourse? Some crackhead off the streat? If such devises were being developed why would they disclose this NOW, on the eve of their most important product’s debut? WTF ever. If this is indeed true then RIM has to be THE dumbest engineers on the face of the earth, period.

This is wrong. I’ve waited since freakin may when I heard rumors of the storm for this phone to come out. Now I have to deal with it being outdated before it’s even ready wtf. So in closing, f blackberry, f the iphone ( because i hate them more), and f the storm 2 & 3. I hope they have glitches and burn.

This phone is going to have more Ram than my notebook running xp. If this thing is rocking a higher than 600 MHz processor why don’t just make it run a modded version of a desktop os? Or at least add some function to their current os. There is no point in a gig of ram with the programs currently available for BBs.
