I have one got it the day it came out.

I can't say I like it very much it really needs a software upgrade I think it will be good but right now it' still very buggy. I do like the screen size for browsing canreef while I'm out but thats about it. I keep thinking about going back to my curve.:sad: Hopefully they will finally release an update to fix some of the bugs.

I got mine the day they finaly released here after the delays. I realy like it and am totaly happy with it. sure there are some I wish it did..... but your going to get that with any phone. I haven't seen any of the bugs other people report, and after some tweeking with the settings it can keep up to my two finger typing. GPS works awsome, used it to find places in kamloops the other weekend. other than that I uses it mostly for e-mail, then as a phone. it is simple to set up bluetooth on.

I got one a few weeks ago and am still getting used to it. I haven't noticed any glitches either except that when I speak on the phone my cheek tends to hit the mute button and apparently there'll be updates to remedy that as well as whatever other issues people may have. iPhone has had 6-8 updates already so give it a bit of time. Some compare the iPhone to a "toy" while the BB Storm is considered a "tool". Whatever; it depends on the user really.

Hmm I wonder if its just mine then. Mine has a long delay when the phone rings and I try to answer it and it stalls a lot the little clock is on my screen at least 10 times a day! The mute thing took a wile to get used to but I don't do it anymore.

My old Blackberry just passed away (run over by a car) lol and I am looking to get this one too. I can't say I liked it today when I was looking at it though. I don't know why...

And yeah, this is real helpful to you :neutral:

ha ha...no worries..I HAVE looked at it over and over and over and just wanted to ask feedback from people that do use them...and any bugs or good things to say!

Long delays are a common complaint apparently. Updates are in the works to fix that. That clock comes on only when I plug it in for a charge at night. Maybe you need to adjust your settings?

I guess just like the SW biz, you have to have a bit of patience (so my daughter tells me. She has a part time job with Telus).
