Whatever stupid excuse comes out of RIM, the bottomline is: The Storm is a shitty device. They did a piss poor job on the OS and it's just insulting to release a phone like that.
The iPhone was missing stuff when it first came out but whatever was on there was working flawlessly and FROM THE GET GO. The web browsing experience is one shinning example. To this date the BB web browser still sucks!!! (How many years will it take you to fix this Mr. Lazaridis???)

At the end of the day, this Apple- Blackberry comparison is just stupid! This goes back to the fundamentals of doing business and catering to your customers needs and has nothing to do with what Apple did wrong or right in comparison to RIM

Before any RIM execs open their trap they should know that most consumers are educated and they should not take any insulting bull as an excuse. It's one thing to defend your product and another to insult our intelligence.

Here's some hints for you RIM:

- Market Research
- Study the competition, not just patch up your products just to play catch up
- QA, QA, QA!!!

RIM should keep their head down, admit to their mistakes and work with all the carriers to fix this damn thing, in the States and Europe. Sit down with them, agree on specifc software releases and push the same build across the board.
That's what a good company does...admit to their mistakes and do whatever they can to support their product by providing the best experience they can to their customers!!!! Not coming out and saying: tough luck...that's our product like it or not, deal with it

Mrs Balsillie and Lazaridis: Your product out of the box SUCKED...just admit it, put your heads down and get your ass to work and fix it! That's your duty...not to come out and serve us bullshit.

I like RIM and this BB device looks great but I am not sure of the OS anymore.
I mean they need someting more modern, they need to update the OS and go more than skin deep.
This is 2009 and people do not want to scroll between menus upon menus in order to find a setting that
is burried somewhere within there.

If RIM wants to target the regular consumer market and not just the business users they definitely need
to look into this. It's getting a little bit long in the tooth. RIM needs to make it not just look but also behave
like a contemporaty OS

Are these guys F-ing insane???? This device has been around for a year! IT'S OLD!!!
With the Touch2 and Touch Pro2 around the corner they are releasing this now? And for this price???
Who's is actually going to buy this for $300 after rebate? LOL

VZW....WAKE UP!!!

That's why I hate VZW. They have the worst phones and deals

How can I pass this up???? GIVE ME MY FUZE :)

This phone rocks! Would love to have one
