i read a post on here bout someone who had it and said it was nice and al but they got bored of it because of what you can do to a ppc but not to a pda. to me it looks nice and all but i love customizing my diamond =D also here in my area you get a STORM and you get another blackberry free at verizon..

Re: Thinking about Blackberry Storm?

Something to know about the BB is that it uses a 3rd party server to route email, where WinMo devices do not. If this third party server takes a dive, as it did a few times last year (one of which was a world wide outage), there's nothing you or your ISP/corporate IT folks can do to get the mail going again. You're both totally dependent on how fast RIM gets that server back up

I just think that if you like being able to set up your phone to be "your phone" you should stay with Winmo, you can even run BB's Suit on the PPC's. IMHO
