I am really thinking I might get one and toss the storm in the toilet :lmao: Although I will say I just got my 3rd replacement today and it is 1000% better than any storm I have owned or played with. It is like a whole new phone (no pun intended)

And I will discuss what I want where I want buddy :censored:

Besides the physical keyboard I am not impressed. It's essentially keyboard version of the storm with the same processor, battery etc. And the fact that it is lacking WiFi I just don't understand. So for me just to have a physical keyboard with much of an upgrade I think I will be passing on the tour. Just my personal feeling on it.

All valid points but since I could care less about wifi it does sound like a great phone. I have days were I don't miss the keyboard and days I do.

Love the view, but cannot take the keyboard (or lack thereof) on the Storm. I"ve thown in the towel on the typing, when the TOUR drops, all bets are off.
I spend more time correcting typos, than I do writing. Simply cannot do business with the current device.

Nice find olta!

Did anybody ever find the differences in the 2 upc codes for the tour? I tried to call VZW, and they said they couldn't look up phones in inventory with the UPC rebate codes, which makes no sense to me. Wouldnt they have to be able to do that to know what the phone is that the rebate is attached to?

Maybe that was just their pat answer Mule. I don't think they can officially say anything until VZW makes the announcement on availability.

Wirelessly posted (Storm 9530)

I thought about that, but the guy sounded new, and legitimately stupid.

I think I have finally made up my mind to dump the storm for the tour. I may keep my storm for awhile, while im testing out the tour. That way I can sell either phone for the one I stick with.

The Storm was the first blackberry I have ever had, so Im not sure how I would like a trackball over a touchscreen.

I have heard good things from people that got to play with them....Try it out though...I am not into the whole physical keyboard thing...so I am waiting for storm 2

Two UPCs are one camera version and one is non camera version. And before Sprint was suppose to release it before Verizon, started testings months before Verizon also. Then Sprint wanted the Pre out, so they put the Tour on the back burner until the Pre was released. So it's still up in the air rather Sprint or Verizon will release first, but Sprint has been ready.
