Probably right after apple makes the battery replacement user friendly.

My screen is still decent, after about 4 months of use. It is a know issue though, but you can always go back to Verizon and exchange it.

I got the Where app, very handy indeed.

I noticed that on the screen cover the storm ships with didnt show any smudges, but the replacement ones show more. Plus they are a bitch to put on. I got a few dust specs under it...ugh.

No, I'm talking about 3g browsing. Al and I stood side by side and loaded the same page. iPhone was much faster loading.


As for the screen issues, I have a hard case with screen protector and I've never had a problem. Best 30 bucks I've spent I think. My dog got the phone the first day I got it, no damage. It's been dropped twice, still no damage. And the screen wipes off with my sleeve.

Wouldn't the speed depend on the connection, which varies from carrier to carrier? Regardless, I haven't used it on the Iphone so I won't go into more detail.

I don't think I said anything about the screen being bad, I just said that I hated typing on it. There's no feedback. If that wasn't directed to me, then please disregard. :mrgreen:

********! Much faster? I was a hair slower then you, and I had less reception then your phone.
I dyno tested the phone vs an iPhone at the ATT store, and my Storm was faster. Both had full reception.

I don't remember us having different reception, but I remember my page loading, scrolling down, looking at you and you saying a four letter explicative before yours was loaded and ready to go. Was probably a good 5-7 seconds faster
