Trust me I truly appreciate all the help you have provided.

I found a picture of vzw's testing process.

You know what's really funny, is the change log from Apple on the iPhone will simply say "improvements and bug fixes". Bottom line is if you own and iPhone the cult of Steve Jobs can turn off your apps, access your phone and they never tell you what "bug fixes and security updates" they made. This is btw coming from an avid MAC user, who is uses and is happy with his BlackBerry Storm.

The underlying problem here is far more serious than what VZW may/may not release in terms of an OS. JLevy73 and others are reporting this BT problem and yet there are also many, many VZW Storm users who have tried .141 and .148 and do not have the issue...leading one to conclude that not all Sorms are the same. This is almost an impossible situation to correct via the OS. What a freaking mess!

I agree with with what you said but typically if you look through the apple forums their change logs will be provided there as well. The .148 change log was an internal VZW document and was not something most Storm owners will ever see. I am Mac user and also had an iPhone for a while (still use it as a paperweight) and while the Storm is a great phone there are many things RIM can learn from that phone. For example, most iPhone owners don't need to replace 5 phone to get the screen to work right. And while updates are few and far between their base OS was far superior to the crappy .65 that came preloaded with the Storm on November 21st.

Yeah I know Toy it is a mess. And there are other forums who are reporting the same problem that I and others have experienced. What's even more maddening is that through someone I was able to communicate with an internal tester for vzw and this was his response to the bug. "Yes we are aware of this bug and my suggestion would be once the OS is released to the public that he call vzw tech support go through the trobleshooting steps and they will submit a ticket to RIM." Wow just :censored: wow.

I wonder if RIM/VZW know pretty much how many Storms are affected by the "bug" and decided to deal with them seperately rather than hold up another OS release. Sounds to me like an opportunity for those adversely affected (ie. VZW made your phone less functional -not to mention it's a driving safety issue) to make a demand for fully functional replacements...maybe a free upgrade to the Storm 2 when it's available if you're interested in that. But I see no reason for certain users to have to contend with a lesser device because of VZW/RIMs decision to ignore a known problem.
