Yup... but Tmobile didn't yet lol... as far as I know Tmo still doesn't have a nation wide 3G network yet... which is why all the good phones are going to Verizon and ATT... so looks like its time for me to switch networks...

Yep. I had all sorts of problems with Cingular. It is hard for me to find a spot where I don't get service with Verizon.

Love my Blackberry Pearl. If this is even better, I'm buying! Verizon has no dropped signals and works everywhere I need it to!

I currently have the Pearl as well. I definately need to upgrade, but that Storm price needs to come down a little before that happens.

You and me both. I use my Curve for way to many Emails to use a touch screen double tap keyboard. Love the bigger screen though!

Same here...everything I've read about the new BB is that it can't really handle media very well (pics, movies, music). Playback value isn't good.

I remember those days where I thought I needed the most current piece of gadgetry of communication and would be glued to it like it was a colostomy bag, which it felt like after a couple of weeks. There was nowhere I could go to get peace and quiet and now you can be buzzed, tickled, beeped, emailed anytime of the night or day and your whole life revolves around these things. Glad I am retired and not having to deal with being in communication at all waking hours of the day. I wonder if anyone knows what it's like to relax and not have to be texting, calling, surfing all the time?
