Looks pretty nice to me. I have the current Verizon Omnia which I have hacked the hell out of, and will probably do the same with this if I get it. But there are a lot of things that I like on it just as it is now. The onscreen keyboard, and phone dialer look pretty good, as well as the media player. For those that don't like the sounds when buttons are pressed, they can easily be turned off in settings if you don't want them, take all of 10 seconds to change.
I hope this ends up being an update for Verizon Omnia. Of course I will have moved on to another phone by the time that actually happens, but we shall see.
Maybe I'm not as critical, but it does not look that bad to me. It reminds me of a Nokia actually. They could drop the Apple look-a-like icons for something different, but not bad really.
I found a website that is selling the Storm but wonder if it is real. Has anyone heard of this site before coms2net.com ? Take a look and let me know what you think. Thanks
Moves along pretty good between apps pretty smoothly too.
So now I have to decide on this or the Storm.
Not a bad choice to have to make either way if you ask me.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
