Blackberry to Storm Touch-Screen Market
The makers of Blackberry tossed its keychain into the touch-screen fishbowl this week. As it dives into the same market as iPhone, RIM hopes to attract some crossover Apple unfaithful. But is the Waterloo tech firm taking a risk introducing the new Blackberry Storm in the midst of a financial world-storm?

I prefer a "real" keyboard... I am quite happy with my Curve and not terribly fond of the iPhones I have used. I'm not sure this will be significantly better even if it does have the clicky screen.

I'm interested in if the browser will be any better. The browser on my Curve absolutely sucks. The lack of wifi may be because Blackberry has battery life standards they have to meet for big businesses that buy them. I'll try the keyboard and see if it works for me.
Seriously, I have no life.

I have a LG Dare and I have no problem with the touch keyboard - it works surprisingly well even compared to the tiny hard button keyboards on the Berries. I just got it and am still within the return period. I was hoping Storm would be available sooner because I was interested, but I heard the official street date is Nov2. My Dare also has a 3.2mp camera with variable zoom/autofocus as well as GPS features. I really just don't like the iPhone.

Are you sure which side of the glass you are on?

The really cool thing about this phone is that it allows you to use 2 different types of keyboards depending on how you hold the phone. Hold it vertically and you have the "pearl" type of abridged keyboard (2 letters per key), but switch it horizontally and it automatically switches to a full QWERTY keyboard.
If you go to blackberry.com you can actually download a simulator that let's you "use" different functions of the phone.

The Dare does something similar too (I think all of the touch phones do this) - gives you a standard phone keypad if you hold it vertically and gives you QWERTY when you rotate it horizontally.

Looks sweet but I need tactile feedback, so I'll stick with my BlackJack.

Meaning what? You like physical buttons? These things all have the little "vibrate" upon key press feature, but I don't like it; it was the first thing I turned off.

Ah, I didn't know they had that but yes, physical buttons. That's why I'm looking at some HTC phones because they offer both.Originally Posted by j_garcia
