dmf21209 Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 havent messed with this phone yet, but I've had and tried out alot of the claimed iphone "competitors" and havent really found one that's BETTER than the iphone IMO. I broke down and got one, especially being that for all the other phones the plans cost around the same per month. Blackberry's(the older ones)...ugh...went through 3 of em in 3 months... if you mess up that trackball the phone is basically done for, and it's hard not to do when your job involves alot of grease and dirt, not to mention working on cars on top of that. The iphones are more durable than people think, guy I work with had his run over by a cobalt, cracked the screen but still works perfectly .

fox_forma Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 I've since added the Magic 8-Ball application GPS Status - Compass App. Robo Defense - Game Now with the Open Home App ... is that the one for $3.99 ... everything else is just a picture "Skin" ????? There are over 530 Open Home APPS I believe when you buy the open home app for 3.99 you are getting the actually software, if you look there are a ton of skins for it that you can download for free. Because of how many screens you will now have the skins must be able to render all screens and fill them in. You will see what I mean if you try to set one of your pics as a background, looks like ass because it blows itself up to fit 3 screens in a sense. Robo defense it sweet, I played that for a while at work last week. I been rockin Pandora at work when the boss isn't around so i can listen to some godsmack cranked up to keep me busy.

USMC Silverado Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Storm sucks, i love it and hate it all at the same time it freezes WAY to much makes me wanna punch babies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetWithIt Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 I've had mine for a few days, and I'm pretty happy with it......Haven't went through and looked at all the apps yet, but so far, there seems to be a good variety......Pictures/videos are pretty crisp/clear....and the phone in general is pretty easy to navigate......................

cls321 Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 Storm sucks, i love it and hate it all at the same time it freezes WAY to much makes me wanna punch babies I have to agree. I got a couple for me and the wife and we both hate it. I had mine for 2 weeks and it just froze and locked up. I hope that the iPhone comes to Verizon very soon.

fox_forma Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 the iphone will not be coming to Verizon anytime soon, especially after all the dogging Verizon did on it when introducing their DROID. Slammed: I have no complaints yet, not one issue either which i find odd as I was expecting it to freeze up or something at one point. Only thing weird I had happen is with google and if I refreshed the home google screen on my droid it would come back in German. It had something to do with the cookies but its fine now. Its basically a mini computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krambo Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 I almost bought the Droid on the spot when I checked it out last week. I just couldn't get over the $30.00 a month fee for having a smart phone added to my plan. ...still rocking the original LG NV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that I did get it, I am suprisingly happy with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krambo Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 Yeah Kevin ... I almost did not get the Droid because of that ... Now that I did get it, I am suprisingly happy with it. Yea, but that phone is exactly what I would want in a new smart phone. I love that it had the slide for the "real keyboard". I just can't do the virtual keyboard with my sausage fingers. If it wasn't for my wife (who would have to have the Droid as well) I would already have it. Adding another $60 a month is a bit much at this time.

cwest94 Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 the iphone will not be coming to Verizon anytime soon, especially after all the dogging Verizon did on it when introducing their DROID. From what I have read in the last couple weeks, Apple is already making a new version of the Iphone and Verizon is going to have it in Sept of 2010.

I think this was the original deal they were trying to work out but from what I have read apple and verizon are not on good terms anymore and everything got flagged. Who knows, maybe it will come to Verizon but i doubt it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwest94 Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 I'm not able to get a new phone till Sept anyways, so I should know by then if Verizon will have the Iphone or not and if they do not, then I guess I'll be switching to AT&T.
