Sprint isn’t as bad as Bellsouth (AT&T), but they’re close.

Have you had issues with signal strength around here with T-Mobile. Seems like I heard that was an issue. Or maybe it was while roaming.

i actually considered trying to track down an “unlocked” one to use on T-Mobile but have looked into it much. it does seem like a pretty nice phone.

i’ve been on the T-Mobile Sidekick since they released the SK 1 Color. they’ve finally come a LONG way by adding pop3 email, video & image messaging capabilities to the newer SK-LX. but what REALLY keeps me with the SK is the cheap price of T-Mobiles Data plan.

i pay $75 a month & i get 2000 anytime mins, free mobile to mobile, unlimited txt & unlimited internet. plus i have the “Fav 5″ thing so i never pay to talk to any of my top 5 most called. unless Verizon offers better than that i guess i’ll have to stick with T-Mobile when my contract is up for renewal.

(p.s.- i hear that Sprint will be picking up the Storm after the 1st of the year but, i’ll NEVER go to Sprint/Nextel.)

So you have to push on the screen hard enough to make it click? That seems a bit difficult.

I’ve been eying the Storm, but I”m not eligible for the “good” Verizon discount until February.

I used Alex King’s WordPress Mobile Edition plugin on my site. That helped with BlackBerry rendering a lot. It didn’t work flawlessly in that every once in a while it seemed to miss the agent tag and render in full mode. But most of the time it was fine, and made browsing the site with the Berry easier and faster.
