Don't Do It!

I've had this piece for about 6 months. I liked it at first as I got used to the touchscreen. Now, the interface lags behind the touches and typing has become much worse with the 5.0 version of the device software. The orientation sometimes works and then there are times when you can't even press the Back button and get out of an app without pulling the battery to reboot. Access to email is great but I have found that it's not worth the headache. To make a call with a simple touch is nearly impossible. I'm going back to a phone that does just the basics. Smartphone? No, not very smart at all. Don't do it!
DON'T BUY THIS PHONE!!!

It's an unbelievable wreck of a device. I can't wait to get out of my contract. That's all I have to say. You've been warned.
Good Fricken Gawd

I had the iPhone previous to this, however, my wife and I have been Verizon subscribers for like 10 years. I had the iPhone for work and they had some cutbacks so I couldn't afford the extra close to $100 a month, so I dropped the iPhone. I'm now wishing to God that I'd never done that. The Blackberry Storm was promised to be as close to the iPhone that there is...and nothing could be further from the truth. This phone seriously sucks. I hate it. The constant lock ups to the point I can't answer a call or open any app. The 5 minute reboot when I take the battery out due to the lockups. I'm seriously gonna bring this phone to the local Verizon store and chuck it at someone like a Ninja star. I could care less about losing the $150 I paid. I just want the damn thing to work for once!!
Oh...but the camera quality is pretty good - if it ain't locked up!!!!
Never buy this phone - you will hate it

This is the worst phone I ever had. The key board sucks. The applications are dificult to get from one to the other. When you are on a call you can't easily get to the keyboard etc. I've used it for 2 weeks and wnated to take it back to Verizon. I dropped it from the coffee table and the screen cracked. Now I'm out $150. and a useless phone. Neither verizon or Blackberry will stand behind a phone that did not work and only 16 days old. It's now in a scrap heap - never buy this phone
