I had a storm for about 3 days before I sent it back to vodafone as it was terrible in every way, there was absolutely nothing I liked about it.

Got an N96 now and I love it, although it has gone back for repair

Just get an iPhone.

The storm is a joke, nothing comes close to the iPhone.. I love my gadgets and bought a storm to try and it's crap. I've yet to try anything as slick and interesting as the iphone.
