In this video, I give my thoughts on the range of opinions regarding RIM's new BlackBerry Storm. The Storm is RIM's first touch screen BlackBerry and is directly targeted at challenging Apple's iPhone. It's puzzling to see such a polarized view of the device. I believe it'll sell well but I think Apple will retain the aesthetics factor. One of the things that Verizon did with the Storm is that they priced AFTER a $50 Mail-In rebate. I think this is foolish and pretty cheap especially since a major rebate company just filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. I hope for Verizon's sake that BlackBerry Storm rebate checks do not bounce. Overall, I'm hoping the BlackBerry storm succeeds and sells well so Apple can continue to innovate and not become lazy. Competition is good for us. Enjoy!

  • Why the fuck are you doing a review on a phone that you havent even seen yet....Your doing a review.....On other people reviews...Anywhooo....I will go and find a real review

  • Thanks for watching! :)

  • Man i'm not gonna lie, at first it sounded like you were confused on what you were going to say or how you were going to word things. As you went on you made a lot of sense. I agree, "Rebates are one of the dumbest things on earth". I'm am a little dissapointed that you don't have the phone to give a real review, BUT the title did say, "The blackberry storm is out and reviews are mixed". On that note It was good watching this because I noticed the same mixed reviews. Either like it or hate it.

  • I don't plan anything I say in any of my videos. I wing it everytime.  So yeah, I probably had to think about what I was going to say.

  • I got an instant rebait when i bought my Storm at verizon...

  • That's good to hear. I'm glad they went that route instead of the advertised mail-in rebate.

  • I know Im a lil late but I love my storm more so then the iphone.. I had the iphone with att of course and att service is horrible. The iphone was soo easy to break and the screen was way to sensitive.. I really love the surepress on storm. It has a great cam and all. I jus would say iphone was faster and the browser was better. But now with the .230 os its even better flick scrolling and all. But Iam thinking about upgrading to storm 2 but not until 6 months after its released

  • Yeah, that phone sucks.

    I returned it.

    Blackberry rushed it. I think that's why

    they filed for bankruptcy.

    Not even close to any phone out now.

    I love blackberry but not the storm.

  • Bleach!

  • the storm absolutely swallows. i've had it for a week and i've nearly thrown it against the wall at least 20 times.

  • dont be a dingus freshprince613 bwana's a good guy now im google all the way G1 but he's the only apple fanboy i actualy like to listen to he usually keeps it real i just hope that one day he see's life through androids eyes instead of apples glasses

  • meow!

  • I will tell you personally that i played with my friends storm and it is so hard to get used to because of everything you do you have to press down on the screen, and thats during the typing and everything.. Iphone is a dead on winner, storm is still really buggy and laggy.

  • bravo bravo

  • why did you watch it to a end?
