I finally took the plunge and got a Blackberry. I've been waiting for a couple of years now for them to put out a touch screen, and now that the Storm went into it's 2nd production run, I picked mine up last week. Absolutely LOVE it. I cannot put the damn thing down. Any other Junkies out there rocking the Crackberry?
I am not a fan of the Blackberrys too much. To big and bulky in my opinion. Plus, I like having a flip. I like my inside screen and buttons to be protected so they don't get damaged or pressed by accident.
I just upgraded to the LG Lotus not even a week ago. I love this thing. I finally got a phone with a full keyboard! It's smaller than a deck of cards too...
I was considering purchasing a Blackberry Bold but the battery life is kak and it's just too big, I wanted something that had similar functions of a Blackberry but had a smaller frame and better battery life so instead I purchased the Nokia E71.
I have the Samsung Instinct by Sprint.....DO NOT BUY THIS!!!!!! Its sucks balls!!! Big, sweaty, salty balls!!! If you text alot like i do this phone is horrible. The virtual keyboard is soo small its impossible to text. The navigation & email functions are cool....but overall i have been disappointed. I'm waiting for the new Palm Pre to come out in a few months...
iPhone user here. Everyone else is just trying to catch up.
The iPhone App Store alone makes this better than anything else. Gonna be a few years, if ever, for anything to come close.
I have a blackberry through work. I don't have any complaints other than the leash it becomes to work 24/7. And I'm also a recovering Brick Breaker adict.
This is the new Palm Pre from Sprint thats coming out in May/June....its "supposed" to be the new iphone killer :lol:
virtual touch screen with slide out treo keyboard

Agreed! My wife has this phone and its friggin unuseable. The touchscreen sux.
I have a Blackberry Curve and use it to post on here 95% of the time.
I did check out the Storm a few weeks ago and found it to be a lot slower. The salesguy told me they are having a lot of problems/returns with it and they've already issued the second software update for it as a result.

Those qwerty keyboards are too small, plus i dont like having to use both hands to send a text message....touch screens also suck IMO

see i always liked the qwerty keyboard. i had a palm treo 650 before i got the instinct and got to the point where i could text with my eyes closed. I think its the fact that you can "feel" what key you're hitting whereas virtual keyboards are a crap shoot. i've always liked the palm products, and i hope the pre is as good as advertised. (unfortunately it doesnt have video recording capability as yet, but neither does the iphone)

If I had to pick one, I would go with the iPhone but since I'm not a high roller like some of the junkies here, I'll stick with my Motorola Razor.

I was previously sporting the Motorazr VE20 (with Sprint, not Alltel). I had no complaints.
If anyone is interested my used one (only few months old, great condition), I'll practically give it away. PM me.

Hello. My name is ThunderCat. I too am a brickbreaker-holic. I've been sober ever since my trackball started sticking. :lol:

i'm pretty sure thats why California banned talking on your cell while driving....
I have a work-issued BlackBerry. It's about three generations old (because I work for the government), but I actually like it better than the newest models because the buttons have a little space between them and I don't have chick fingers.
Tradeoff: I don't pay my own cell bill; however, my work knows they can always contact me.
