GlockSpeed31 Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 My wife & I just upgraded to the Storm through Verizon this past Friday. They have a special right now of buy 1 BB get 1 BB free. So we paid $225 out the door for 2 Storms, 2 hard shell protectors, a pack of screen protectors and a belt case. Still trying to figure everything out with it. Was told it would take a month or two to truely master it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It expects your fingers to come in at a certain angle and if it doesn't, you get a different letter. It uses a heat sensitive sensor along w/ the touch screen to select items, or atleast that is how the tech told me how it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidwiz Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 How do you like the Storm's "keyboard"? For me, the best technique is to "hover" your fingers over the letters and then press down. With the Storm, the whole screen is pressed, unlike the iPhone where you virtually hit the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's kinda weird, but I'm starting to like it more everyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireant Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Glockspeed, any links to that BOGO deal? I looked on line and could not find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fastmover Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I have been rocking the Storm for about 6 weeks. It needed one software update to get it to stop killing the battery. The touch screen with click feature works better for me than the iphone. All in all a top notch product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warpspeed Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I ended up with a Curve - 8350i I think on the Nextel network. So far it seems pretty trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbright Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I've had a work provided Blackberry for years (7503) and now also carry an iPhone which I strongly prefer. I figured out that the key to a good vacation is to have personal cell phone in addition to a work phone. It's too tempting to peek in on work with the Blackberry while on vacation and with the personal cell phone you can leave the Blackberry at home and just turn it off. Yes I know, it's obvious...

Reconvic Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 I really find my Curve 8330 does it for me. It has all the features and I have it set up for me now. S/F Vic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
