Hey, the 1GB memory refers to ONBOARD memory. U do know what that means right? Onboard memory and extended/expanded memory are 2 different things...!

Too bad ATT doesn't have a "character" then we could send the VZW test man and the ATT guy on Jerry Springer haha

as long as vzw markets the storm by marketing the phone like att does to all their phones it will be a success. it all starts with marketing. prime example is how att did the razr and iphone ads. im a huge apple fan but i have had vzw service since prime co and dont see myself changing. vzw markets too much of the network and too little of the device. people would run out and buy the iphone or razr even if it started on MetroPCS. The ads are cool and thats what sells. a normal consumer is not going to run out and buy the storm if they get a 2 second glimpse of it and the other 28 seconds of the test man with the network behind them. vzw has had some great phones that they could of had people running to them for but market it wrong, 8700, xv6900, dare, z6tv, all great phones with no ads and no catchy name. just my thoughts....

When Verizon was still Airtouch, a corporate salesman told me "I am going to give you an advice that will always going to be true, it's always about the service and the network when it comes to mobile communication." Until this day, I still believe that he is right. There are people who wants a reliable network and service and those who wants more out of their hardware and software. iPhone, in my opinion is a fun toy with integrated communication ability. I see people play on their iPhone than communicate with their iPhone. The Storm seem like a nice phone (until a full review of course) and if it's a fun phone to use, perhaps, it is possible to have the best of both world, fun and reliable connection, goodluck RIM, there's a first for everything.

why won't verizon add their vcast music with rhapsody, vcast video, and vcast mobile t.v. to smartphones and blackberry. WHY?
