EVDO is 3G (available long before other US providers). The Storm supports the latest rev A EVDO and GSM's 3G networks (you will get a 3G symbol rather than 1XEV when roaming off traditional (ie Verizon, Sprint, Bell, etc ) CDMA networks. Technically all 3G networks are CDMA based - GSM was inferior.
The only reason I'm considering the storm is b/c it has that psuedo physical keyboard, the screen clicks or something. Tho I'm not sure if that will provide ample tactile feedback for my big sausage fingers.The storm is ok, I do miss the physical keyboard from my old blackberry but I am getting better each day.
The higher res, size and ease of navigation of the porn I look at makes up for the $hitty keyboard.
The RIM platform has always been about apps including third party so you can usually get what you are looking for even if RIM's applications aren't appealing to you. For example, Opera Mini works just as well as Safari does on the iPhone.
Last I heard RIM was going to make him something custom.
Actually Obama got to keep his BB with additional security solution implemented.
I've got my fingers crossed too.
ive had the HTC Fuze (att's name, HTC calls it the PRO) for a few months now and i love it...some quirky things about, especially with their Touch Flo
RIM's network isnt secure enough to handle that. i heard it was going to be GD's phone and not his blackberry
Can you elaborate more?
it sometimes doesnt always respond to moving around the menu's, and even though this processor is a ton faster than my HTC 8125, it sometimes take two seconds to move b/w features....i know two seconds isnt a lot, but my slower processor 8125 didnt do that, and i want sht to get done asap. its because of HTC's Touch Flo.
Engadget was wrong and they admitted it:
well i should never trust the internet again.
RIM's BIS solution is best for personal email despite some recent infrastructure problems, even the iPhone still lacks any push notification.
RIM has servers for BIS and BES service routing at various locations in the world for cellular providers that offer their products. Its security is better than most other wireless devices as government and business use as been its core market until recently. Its been rock solid (I've been using them at work since 03 in addition to Palm, WM, and OSX devices I've also supported) until a few hiccups due to the big growth in popularity the last year or so (though I've seen more infrastructure problems with ATT data network than RIM based problems - that's why we stopped using ATT). You always have the ability to use third party apps for mail too (yahoo, google, or POP/IMAP/etc) and newer devices have wifi if you don't want to use BIS/BES or want a backup.
Is my name John McCain :huh:
I'm sure you already have seen it but he was photographed with an 8830:
yeah i did see it. i was gonna post it when i got home but it looks like you did already.
hey, any updates? Have you stuck with it or cashed it in for a physical keyboard? If you kept it, do you eventually get used to it? How fast can you type compared to a phone w/ a physical keyboard?
Storms are $99 on Amazon or $199 for two at the Verizon store.
she sparks up a joint with hers.....they get that hot.
I'm betting it is just that all Blackberrys also have a burning hate for you.
