I wanna buy a blackberry and im going back and forth with which phone to get bb 2 storm or bb bold 2

First of all, T-Mobile doesn't carry any of the BlackBerry Storms! But if you decide to buy one & get it jailbroken, then I can tell you that it's a pretty good phone, in my personal opinion :). The touchscreen keyboard is fairly easy to use, and it comes with 3 different keyboards to choose from.

I would go with the 9700, its very similar to the 9000 which was a great phone.

I would personally go for the bold 2 because no touch screen can outperform the capabilities of a physical keyboard.

That is what it really boils down to... whether you like touch screen or the physical keyboard.

But... the newer Bolds do have more memory, OS 6 support, and are a bit faster.

I'd personally wait for the Bold Touch ;)

I personally would wait because all new models are coming out. The Bold 2 is a good phone but its reached its time and even the new Curve will outperform it once it comes out in a couple months. If you're into the query keyboard- get the Bold Touch if you like touch screen- get the Touch/Volt.

Storm line has been discontinued, Better off with the new BOLD!
