    I had a chance to play around with one of these and absolutely loved the phone. Great product for the first touchscreen by Blackberry. It does have some quirks like a slow response time, but what new technology does not have a few bugs. The screen quality is out of this world and pressing the screen to click is a great feature. Some may try to compare the iPhone to the storm or may put this phone down but overall is a sign of great things to come if your a Blackberry fan.

    About half of my phone conversations are by text and previously I was using a flip phone where you had to press some keys several times to get the letter you want or pause before the next letter on the same button becomes available. With this Blackberry Storm where I can rotate the phone and get a touch screen keyboard this is an excellent change. The pressing to click screen works really well.

    Absolutely LOVE my phone! Not only are the camera pictures amazing, it's so easy to text with and user-friendly. I'm not much into surfing the web on it because it's more of a pain than I'd rather fool with, but it's there if you need it, which is still a plus.

    I found the phone to slow in its turning from up and down to side to side. I think the rest of the phone is great and you can use it hands free is great

    I used one for a week, and I review many phones. Input is not very good. The first bad Blackberry.
