Micro USB for BlackBerry Storm
Although I like the Storm very much, I'm having a problem with the micro USB cable that came with it. When I try to switch data from my old BB to the Storm via the BlackBerry Desktop Manager, my Windows XP system doesn't recognize the micro USB, even though the phone itself accepts a charge from my PC. I've tried using the drivers provided by RIM and Verizon Wireless, but they still don't seem to help, and RIM's solutions center was not the best place to get answers from. Has anyone else out there run into the same problem and, more importantly, found a solution for it? Perhaps another source of micro USB drivers???
