I'll just leave this here:

"$350 ETF"

The guy on the left kinda looks like Mr. Bean

audiosurf is almost enough to make me go buy this even though I am happy with my little 8gig zune

Woomba anyone?

Using the Storm 2 as an example:

1 year equip price $250 (cost to leave Verizon after 12 months = $0)
2 year equip price $180 (cost to leave Verizon after 12 months = $230)
difference = $70 ($6/month (how much were you paying for that insurance again?))

I read 4 pages of comments on BGR when this was a rumor there and now I am on page 2 of engadget.. no one has mentioned splitting the difference. It would be pretty easy to pay a little more ($75ish?) to have the phone on a one year contract instead of two. Seems like a simple solution to me. And then you can take the fancy device and get it flashed to a prepaid or virtual carrier and go balls out for $50/month or so and no contract.

You feel mistreated by big red? Talk with your $.

Hey Chris, WAT!?

BANANA PHONE

What's the point of comparing a 2009 product to a deck of cards? size maybe?

I was kinda excited about the storm 2. After seeing BGR fawn over motorola droid, if I was in the market for a verizon smart phone i'd be looking for the droid.
