Verizon Releases BlackBerry Storm Firmware Upgrade

I don't understand

I don't understand why large, well-known, news organizations such as the NY Times employ what can only be described as zealots (read: David Pogue). I've not experienced a single issue he reports and am a very satisfied user of the Storm.

I've had the exact opposite response from human beings that tried the Storm. All, save the current iPhone users, that have tried my Storm have loved it. In fact three went and purchased one (waiting on delivery) and are excited each time they try mine. The iPhone users only tell me that they don't like the design of the clicking screen.

This can easily be chalked up to unfamiliarity and just being different than their iPhone since I need to repeatedly tell them to actually click the screen and not just lightly touch it. Those that I showed it to which aren't current iPhone users have not had an issue using the clicking screen and they have all loved how it gives feedback when you press something.

I would suggest all interested to go try one out if they are in the market for a touch screen cell phone. Unfortunately Mr. Pogue sounds of an iPhone user that feels nothing can beat, or should even try to offer a similar experience. It is a shame that it isn't given a fair shake.

I hope RIM decides to deliver as many updates to the Storm as Apple does to the iPhone. It may not be the case though since Apple only provides one phone product, the iPhone, and RIM has a wide assortment that are shuffled out regularly. In that respect I don't have an issue with a 2 year life cycle on a phone since I upgrade that regularly anyway.

i agree

the updates make a huge difference. they should do more reviews with the updated storm so it would be accurate.

netwroking of Storm?

I have heard thru our IT guys that the Storm has some problems for network users. Our exisiting BlackBerries have been pretty reliable, although I'd like to upgrade us to the Storms. Any feedback/comments on what the issues are adn whether they are being addressed?

"WHAT A STORM"

I too was a victim of non responsive screen and reboot at least five times a day nor was I the only one experiencing this issue! Thank you Verizon for stepping up, acknowledging the problem, and releasing a firmware update!
Why is Apple hiring EVDO and CDMA engineers?

I would suggest all
