Diamond vs Storm
Hey I need your input. My diamond had problems so I have the choice of getting it replaced or switching to the storm on Telus.

Anyone try the storm and have any opinions about it? Any comparisons to the diamond?

Looking forward to your thoughts.

Re: Diamond vs Storm
the storm is the worst keyboard ive ever used. its horribly inaccurate if you type with any kind of speed, and the clickable screen is terrible. ive tried multiple devices and have the new s/w, so i know its not simply a bad unit.

the diamond is not perfect by any means, but it might be the best all-around device ive ever owned

true, but the clickable screen is the root of the problem most of the time and that isnt any different

Re: Diamond vs Storm
Get this....

You're workin in the garage with an electric saw and you accidently saw off your LEFT HAND! you only have about 6-7 secs before you lose enough blood that you pass out... so you pick up your blackberry storm and hit the "phone pad" button so you could call 911... BUT IT TAKES FOR EVER TO EVEN BRING UP THE PHONE PAD!

i'm sorry but you are now going to die without anyone trying to help you....

go look at an unboxing of the storm on youtube... it BLOOOOOOWS

Re: Diamond vs Storm
plus the click screen means there is no possible future upgrades like multi touch...

the diamond and the pro are supposedy going to be able to handle that when MS releases it
