    I'm not a huge fan of the iphone but it should be interesting see the competition between Verizon and AT&T to see which is the real best 3G network.

    Just bought a Blackberry Storm with my Verizon service.

    I will take it over an iPhone any day.

    Not a bad phone, though I do prefer the iPhone.

    What happened though? Last time I checked you were into simple phones that were just for calling and maybe messaging.

    Yea I'm not a huge fan of all these superphones either. Actually I'd take a messaging device over a phone any day. Oh and it must have the capabilities to accept multimedia messages.

    I got a G1, which I like, though they really need to release a battery that lasts more than a few hours of use, and some other minuscule details.

    If I could have purchased an iPhone i probably would have.

    I love the way you unlock the G1. So fun. And that's the problem with a lot of phones nowadays the battery life is crap.

    So, if you have an iPhone on AT&T are you screwed? I'm too lazy to read the whole article etc etc

    I bitched at the guy because he said I would need a $500 security deposit.

    I told him if he gave me the Blackberry Storm for free (I need bluetooth for work, unfortuantely, I was just going to get the Voyager, but Storm is better in this case) I would pay the security deposit, there wasn't any arguing at all.

    So realistically I saved myself $200 and got it for free.

    I do, however, generally like the more basic phones. I do text quite a bit so the qwerty keyboard was appealing when I was looking for a new phone, then with my new job and how many e-mails I get then getting a Blackberry just made sense.

    Nice deal. I didn't get a chance to use the keyboard on the Storm but the keyboard on the iPhone as you may already know is pretty quirky, especially for people with average sized hands... I can never seem to press the right keys, but my gf breezes through it.

    You use both styluses at the same time? I can understand one but two? Wouldn't that just make it more difficult?

    nope, big hands, I hold the phone on my pinky and ring finger with my middle fingers over the top of it and use the two styluses with my index and thumb lol

    Works the best from anything I have tried so far. I find when I use 1 stylus im jabbing at the screen too fast and im kind of likely to break it lol
