Title: Blackberry Storm
Post by: AuburnChopper 3.0 on November 13, 2008, 05:01:04 PM

Fuck, here we go again...  Just got a notice today that this beast is coming out next Friday.   It's blackberry's first touchscreen phone.   I'll end up buying it.   Damn you Blackberry... Damn you.

Any other Blackberry junkies looking at this thing, or considering it?

Not a crackberry fan at all, but I purchased Verizon's LG touchscreen phone (the "dare") and it gets a 7/10 due to lack of accuracy of the touch function when clicking on internet links, scrolling, and magnifying.  The IPhone's touch functions blow it outta the water.

The new touchscreen on the this new blackberry will actually move in and make a click sound as you type giving you the sensation of typing on a keyboard.  The mouse on the full HTML browser is moved by pointing your finger and will have double click capablilites.   This thing is going to be insane.

Never used a Blackberry, but I have been thinking up upgrading to one when the time comes. I have T-Mobile, so I am interested in this new G1 also. Any T-Mobile customers got that yet?
