I am considering buying the Blackberry Storm but I would like to know a few things. How is the keyboard for texting? Do you find it to be accurate most of the time? Also, can you send sounds with pictures? All Verizon phones that I’ve had let me send pictures, text, and sounds in a picture message. Is this the same for the Blackberry Storm? Thanks.

I own a Storm and the capabilities are exactly the same as other BB’s. Before Storm I used to use iPhone. I found iPhone’s sensitivity better than Storm. For Storm, everytime you want to press a key/button, you have to click it hard, so it’s not just touching it. And that’s a problem since in vertical mode, you don’t have the qwerty keyboard but only the regular phone keypads or their version called SureType (I hate the latter though, it’s confusing and it’s mixed with their dictionary which isn’t all that complete either). When in horizontal mode, you have the Qwerty and the accuracy it’s pretty weak. I keep pressing the button next to the one I really want.
I would rather you get a Bold or Javelin or an iPhone (if you’re not a BB freak).
The Blackberry Storm can do whatever any other Blackberry can do.
The texting keyboard is not good, atleast for fast typers. When you press on a letter, then on another letter, you have to wait for the screen to click back up or else the phone wont pick up the second letter you pressed. It is quite accurate, but I still prefer the iPhone’s keyboard.
My friend’s mom has it and her mom texts quite a lot (lol)
and she said iPhone is better like the person who answered first.
Blackberry storm is same as other blackberries and everything.
Voyager has a full qwerty keyboard so it’s much more comfortable
like you’re on a computer. I prefer Voyager or iPhone 3g maybe
I have the storm and I find it easy typing with the full keyboard I do message a lot and it corrects the spelling as you go I know all BB my do the same thing but it easy to type on the storm
You can do video on the storm so I would thing you could send it to
