The Storm's SurePress touch-screen takes some acclimation and the onscreen keyboard is a bit cramped. The smartphone can be sluggish and buggy even after the firmware update.. Speakerphone quality was a bit choppy

When the phone works, the email and messenger options are great, this phone COULD be a fantastic business phone since they do work in every country I've been in, including Japan. The camera is okay. The touch screen is better than the I-phone
Poor battery life, no reliability, you must manually change the time as you pass time zones, applications for this phone are quite poor and eat battery life, NO TECHNICAL SERVICE WHAT SO EVER FROM VERIZON OR BLACKBERRY
