Interesting... I like the storm over other BlackBerry phones I've had. I haven't had any trouble with mine yet and it gets the job done. I use the Touch for my vids & music but it sucks hauling my phone + ipod.

I like ATT & Verizon for service. Both have worked for me, no complaints on either 2 services.
Do you have to use your phone for work? Not just that, but do you have to respond to emails all day long? There's a difference between using a phone for work or as a phone in general... everybody I know who really needs a PDA phone don't use iPhones or Storms, and if you need internet, Verizon or ATT would be the first picks, over Sprint. If you need to respond to maybe one or two emails a day with your phone, then the keyboard that pops up on the screen works great. But if you're actually busy, then you need a real keyboard... and from experience, nobody likes the Pearl and it's two letter per button keyboard either.

I completely agree there. I got that phone for free when it first came out and I hated it with a passion. That's why I'm now using the Blackberry Curve and it's so much more practical.

I actually liked the pearl a lot. After using it for a week it's really easy to type and it's pocket size unlike the curve.

How long did it take you to get used to the double letter keys? Even though the words you're attempting to type out would appear as you type them, for the life of me I just couldn't get used to it.

Again, its a tool for me. I don't use it 100% of the time for my job just like a mechanic doesn't use the same socket all day long. I use it when on the go and when I need to review reports and Im off site and away from a computer with internet. E-Mails are prompt and the screen keyboard is fine for me. It took some time getting used to with my stubby thumbs but now I don't miss a key. I agree wit the pearl 100%, didn't last 4 days before I got rid of mine. I do miss my HTC Tilt but that thing was bulky.

Oh, and if you iPhone fans want to see a cool phone that actually works, look up the HTC Diamond! It just doesn't seem like a practical phone for working from the field either.

had an iphone, got bored of it (before apps were avail, and you had to go on actual websites to play games)
got the tilt... HATED it. lagged SOOO much
was thinking of the fuze, but figured, didn't wanna take a risk with another HTC since i didn't like my tilt.
got the bold, was gonna exchange it for another iphone as a backup if i didnt like the bold. but i fell in love with it.
and all the iphone hype is SOOOOOOOOOOO annoying.

The Fuze is great... I just don't like where they put the volume buttons... and you have to get the BS out of the HTC phones before you use them... I guess that doesn't make it practical for most people... but then again, I don't need to send emails on the run all day anymore...

Yeh. HTC phones lags. I didn't know you wanted it DOFU lol I sold it for 300 only and it was 1 week old in box.. lol Didn't care for it much won it from a contest at work.

The bold is a pretty good phone but it still can't do half the things the Iphone can. I have it as a back up. But who's to say you know everyone are just more comfortable with different phones
