My understanding is that Pogue is an iFan - and Mosseberg is too. Nothing wrong with that, the iPhone is a game changing platform that I believe makes the entire pda/smartphone market better. I had a Treo 650 and then moved to WM. Overall, I like WM but I just don't like the choices we have in the US for WM devices. I REALLY want screen real estate and thus I am interested in both the iPhone and the Storm. I never really liked the 8830 or the Curve (nothing much different from my Q9c, IMHO) but I picked up the Storm in the store today and for about 10 minutes, I was impressed. I actually like the "keyboard". I can see how folks might get tired of typing on it, but it fit my typing style pretty good - and the suggestions were spot on. It seemed to zip along pretty good and that screen was FANTASTIC. Now I say this as I had just left the Sprint store after playing with the Diamond and the TP. I was just about to order a TP on eBay today and decided to try it one more time at the store. Not going to happen now. I am not going to jump the Sprint ship just yet (have a 3-line family plan and a year on the contract) but I am seriously going to consider the Storm in the near future.
(Disclaimer - I am 49 and have not so great eyesight - never wore glasses but now need a "boost". I do not see me moving to an HTC product over my Q9c. Nice screens, but they are still too little. Good God, why can't they bring the Touch HD to the US asap!!)
