Yeah, the last thing i want is Microsoft behind my back when making calls and being reliable :(. So far the phone is good. It runs on a faster EVDO conection than other phones. The phone crapped out on me today for some reason just shut off. I tried to turn it back on and it wouldnt. I simply took out the battery and started charging it, and than cured the problem. Other than that, n olag or problems w/ this phone.

Isn't the response time on the Storm a bit slow Treyz?

I hope you Garm makes a good decision on the phone he gets. Btw, they have a deal on this phone, $240 w/ two year contract, -$70 rebate bringing it down to $169. I got mine for $218 because of Home Depot...good deal~

That was the original problem when they first came out. According to people that have the phone, there was an immediate update that took care of that and is up to speed. A friend of mine just did the recent update, but his contact list was missing. He's fixing the problem through backup/systemlink.

I played with his phone, but wasn't a fan. The whole screen in a big button that pushes down and clicks (where their "click" in the commercials come from).

The Instinct clicks as well, but when you touch the "buttons" and vibrates as well for an extra confirmation.

Now running for about 3 weeks with the new update for the Instinct and I still encounter some freezing. Not as much as I used to but still does occasionally. I'm switching back to Blackberry, but might be leaving Sprint if they don't come out with better phones. All the other companies have the newest phones and I thing the newest smartphone is still the Instinct and Curve. HTC I won't touch at all.
