I ended up getting the Blackberry Storm 2 today and with only having the phone for less than 5 hours so far, its been a great phone. Its everything I wanted in a blackberry and more, just a shame it took two tries to get it right. So far I will say they nailed it. This is the phone I expected when I bought the storm 1, and after getting the storm 1 i was severely let down. The piezo tech in the screen is wicked cool too, it clicks and moves down a little when the phone is on and when the phone is off the screen is solid.

Froze all the time, restarted often, dust under the screen, required battery pulls to keep it going smooth, screen seemed to get lose and wiggle in a clockwise motion, way slow compared to the 2, not very fluid on tilting from landscape to portrait, pictures seemed to freeze the phone, battery life was horrible and I'm sure i'm missing some more lol. I'm particular to what I buy, and when I spent $400 on the storm 1 i was expecting a phone that didn't struggle with many simple tasks.

Not to rezz a old topic but. Did you ever update to a "beta" release? I had major problems with my first storm until I upgraded to a hybrid release. then the screen quit working properly. That was all within the first two months of having the phone. I received a replacement from Verizon and haven't had any problems since. But I never used the original os I always used a hybrid until 5.0 was released.

I had the original storm, the day it came out i got mine... i had the same issues, took it back 2 months later and they replaced it with the one i have now and its been running smooth since.. i upgraded to the new software they have for it, and it runs even better now!
