Haven’t had chance to use the storm yet. Just think it’s funny how blackberry user’s have been bashing the I.phone stating that us I.phone owners needed to buy real phones! And how great there blackberrys are! Well if that’s the case when I upgraded from the 1st generation I.phone to the 3G version why do the blackberry owners asking me for my old I.phone if I according to them I needed to buy a real phone! I’m not trying to bash them about how my phones better than there’s. I have come to the conclusion they must be jeoulous of I.phone the way they want to bash the I.phone. Blackberry in my opinion even as a company must realize the I.phone is best cell phone ever made they have gone & tryed copying apples product. Only downfall I have with my I.phone isn’t actually with the phone it’s with At&T!!!! Not my favorite carrier that in my opinion is U.S.Cellular!

I gotta say, the “STORM” has proven to be the true I Phone killer. For those that cant seem to see a comparison are truly blind. There is no comparison. Just the video quality has proven to be more superior than that of the I phone and I pod touch. No WiFi, big deal. Why would I want to be tied down to a network in which I can’t walk away from freely more than 20 feet. Verizon’s EVDO has proven to be the fastest time after time, after time. Assides from all of the great features the Storm offeres business users like myself, has anyone looked at the camera resolution? 3.2 and the picture can be sent instantly through MMS. Yeah, the I phone can also take a picture with it’s 2.0 camera but, whats the deal with having to log in to your email in order to send it. This defeats the entire purpose of “instant” messaging. It’s not called “have to log in to your email and send a picture messaging.!”

@ Jeremy Sikoria and Rene Ritche

I had the chance to play with the Storm this morning from a Blackberry rep who showed it to me in the back of my local Verizon retail store the day before release and I ran the same tests in a Verizon Wireless store and I got different results… My iPhone 3G beat the **** out of the Storm. And also, the Storm renders pages HORRIBLY… I wouldn’t suggest anyone get the Storm that was thinking about getting the iPhone. It’s true, the Storm might be better than a lot of other smartphones on the market currently, but it’s light years away from being even much less beating the iPhone 3G.

Just the thought of it RIM thinking they could out due Apple on their 1st attempt makes me lol.

Below are a little eye candy for those who doubt me…

And to make it worse for RIM, here is another review saying to get a Bold over the Storm.

I never thought of this but I should have kept my numbers from the browser tests I sent Kevin regarding the Bold vs iPhone on AT&T. I can tell you the Bold did fair better than the first set of tests Kevin did but it is still a no contest.

Beating the iPhone in browsing is a very tall order that I don't see anyone coming close to. Sorry RIM fans.

My comment on Crackberry.com:

–

Very nice, Kevin!

TheiPhoneblog.com will, of course, run our own tests, using a cardboard cut out of the iPhone 3G vs. your video of the Storm. We predict Safari will crash less!

What’s up with the lack of WiFi, though? Is RIM going all Battlestar Galactica on wireless? I know WiFi on the iPhone leaves me open to the frakken Cylons, but with warp speed, exchanging files via Zero Config, sweet, sweet remote desktop over 802.11g, and otherwise integrating with home automation and virtually every other WiFi equipped device on the planet… at least I’ll have fun before I’m nuked.

Any chance the GSM Storm will get WiFi?

Waiting on your review. Be kinder than Time. Please

@MTN- LOL! HAHAHAHAH

Yeah... ummm This isn't really even an argument. Blackberry lovers can say whatever they want, truth is i'll ignore it.

NO WIFI. <<< Nuff said.

While the iPhone3G/Bold browser test seemed to be quite reliable (same conditions, settings, etc.), I can’t see how this test could mean anything at all. Comparing iPhone with JS enabled vs. BB with JS disabled doesn’t seem to me like a fair battle. And the “Real World, default settings” explanation doesn’t convince me either.
