Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

I by-passed the Bold to wait for this device. And before Christmas too! Merry Christmas to me!

Keeping my fingers crossed.

That will be cool... lovin' it.

Although, it looks like this will an EDGE only device, no 3G.

This will be interesting to see pan out. Considering there are eval units on Rogers right now, and on their 3G BTW, it'll be interesting to see how it releases.

Storm looks cool but I viewed a vid of data entry, looks terrible, much rather have the full QWERTY keyboard.
3G is painfully slow. We had AT&Ts internet cards for our laptops, junk, so we upgraded to their new ones, equally terrible, painfully slow.............both were 3G speed, whatever that means.

Its only 3G if you are in a 3G area. Sounds like you were not.

Seems you must have missed part of the vid, the Storm has a full QWERTY keyboard. Turn the Storm landscape.

If an EDGE only device with Rogers, perhaps wifi would be on it also?

i agree with rkh3...i've been using a Storm for the past 2 months, and it is a very flimsy device while typing..especially if your palms tend to sweat sometimes..hee hee....it took me soooo long to get used to...but i got used to it after a while..really is an awesome RIM device....

BB4Life....so what do you think of the phone, do you think its worth it to have on AT&T without the 3G and without it having wifi? I really want to see how this phone is because I want a full touch screen phone and I was hoping it had 3G or wifi so when Slingbox came out with their blackberry program I would be able to watch TV on a phone and not have to comprimise quality and reliability. Was even thinking of going to Verizon just for that purpose but dont want to miss out on all the cool phones GSM people get.

I'm sorry if this is obvious, but does this mean that one could buy a Storm, unlock it and use it on T-Mobile?
