I'm not saying that BBNews and the BBForums have been lacking in coverage of the Storm. You guys do a great job as always.

I'm just saying that I don't sense that the excitement level on the forums by the general members is anywhere near the level last summer for the Bold. The Bold boards were buzzing last summer. The Storm boards don't seem as active or as fervent.

As for the Bold v Curve, there is no question that the Bold is a much more robust device than the Curve. I just thought it was too big, I didn't like the keyboard, the flat front kind of bugged me, and the faux leather back looked cheap. Add to that the problems reported here with the OS, and I was just a little underwhelmed with the whole package.
