I really like everything about the Storm and have played with it a little bit but I do know a few people that have had some issues with it that seem pretty common with Storm users so I am wondering if I should just go with the Curve as it seems to be tried and true or just take the chance with the Storm and hope that software updates come out rapidly to eliminate the current issues plaguing it. I am also contemplating parting ways with Verizon simply because I am tired of them dummying down their phones so you need to pay for everything right down to ringtones like my current phone. I can send ringtones to the phone through the free websites but it does not allow you to use them for ringtones. Verizon has found every way possible to nickle and dime their customers and I am honestly getting tired of it.
