Verizon compares BlackBerry Storm2 to stablemate Bold, iPhone 3G and Pre

With a chart that compares features of the Storm2 next to those for three other top smartphones, Big Red shows that the Storm2 is a force to be reckoned with...

LOL... if it wasn't true I wouldn't laugh so hard. VZW provides nearly 25% of all of RIM's service worldwide.... So a martet of nearly 90 mil subs provides 25% of a world population of what now... 3 billion+ ... Boring Blackberries... NEXT!

It's stupid to compare phones with completely different OS. Let's be honest WebOS, Android and iPhone OS are better than the Blackberry OS. What blackberry does it does it well though. But Blackberrys need some updating IMO.

I don't think it is stupid at all... Verizon isn't going to put their Storm 2 against their other Blackberries in a chart to show that it smashes the other Blackberry they offer... that wouldn't make any sense. A comparison chart is great to have, but looking at this chart, it does not say to me, "The Blackberry Storm 2 Destroys all these other phones!!!" This comparison chart sucks, and who ever wasted their time with it should be fired... LOL! I agree with you that Blackberry need to do a bit of updating for their OS, but they are a great product. Just get a better Comparison Chart.

Agreed !!

I agree that the chart is worthless. I also agree that the blackberry OS is as outdated as the WinMo OS. Since I'm a VZW user and they don't have the iPhone, talking about it doesn't help me at all (in fact it just makes me bitter than we don't have it.) So instead, the crux for me is going to come out which OS is better: Android or WebOS? And by better I mean which one will mimic the iPhone's extremely responsive OS as well as pump out the most quality apps. Time will tell...

Yes, not really valid comparisons. BUT...it's interesting how the ipone kids try and pretend the lack of microSD support is not only not a big deal, it's actually a GOOD thing. See how those tards will try and twist anything?! Sure, they'll pay an extra $100 for 8gb extra built in storage, or an extra $200 for an extra 24gb. Let me see, 8gb micro sd cards are under $20 these days, 16gb are under $50...I swap out a card and my winmo phone has all the extra memory for a fraction of the cost, and I can swap music/video libraries and updated data bases in seconds. microSD support is a wonderful thing, you idiots! Why anyone would release a "modern" phone without it is inexcusable!

You are an idiot if you think that a MicroSD card is a wonderful idea. Who will carry or even care to make a library of SD cards they can easily lose? SD cards cannot be used to run programs natively. Also... 16gig Iphone cost just as much as your Storm with the 8gig card. If you pay for a 16gig you now spent more money then the 16gig iPhone 3gS and you still have less effective memory then the 32gig. Now what makes your point absolutely idiotic is you will only have at max 16gigs on your phone at all times and carrying around multiple cards is just asking for them to become lost... So the only idiot is you... The idea of MicroSD cards being needed for a phone is utterly retarded.. Built in memory is better..

who said i had a storm? I've got a winmo phone that kicks apple's ass, but the highschool kids think ipone is the only kewl phone. who talked about a library of cards (two is great)? who is the idiot making my point exactly?
