Verizon BlackBerry Storm2 Commercial!

How come all the iphone users are over here checking out the storm 2 commercial?

Just seen this commercial air on Fox before the NFL game... Cant wait for mine to be here Wednesday!!!!

I Love the Storm and iPhone battles lol, being a owner of both I know AT&T 3G coverage is suspect and Verizon's is the best by far but all these people who dog iPhones I sure hope if it comes to Verizon you dont jump on the bandwagon, because better network or not it's still and iPhone, so if you dont like it now, dont waste your money then....its like every phone that comes out its a comparison to iPhone....so its obvious the iPhone is a threat to all smartphones...just my 2 pennies but who cares, right...

commercial ever! I don't know if Storm 2 lives up to this, but the commercial is just awesome.

On the verizon site i see the Storm2 for 179.00 so I decided to check my site to see if I had the storm 2 on sale yet.

http://nexustech.zurvita.biz/products_telecom_wireless.asp

It is free for new customers and 89.00 for existing verizon customers.

I the Verizon Store it is 279.00 with a 100.00 rebate.

Maybe this can help someone who does not have the Storm2 yet.

If you dont see the wireless page goto products, then telcom, then mobile.

Nuff said

I think now that the Storm 1 is updated with 5.0 OS - It runs alot smoother and probably what it should have been all along. I do not see a reason to run out and upgrade to the Storm 2.

I hear rumor that the "Sister" to the Iphone is supposed to be available on Verizon in the "Near" future. That is what a rep told me a few weeks ago.

But for now I am happy with the Storm 1. Seems to be alot more stable now. I will just keep it. Besides my contract does not end untill January of 2011 anyhow so I am pretty much stuck with it unless I wanted to pay FULL RETAIL PRICE... I don't think that is an option.

Great phone and features. I just dont have any luck with the any of the Storms. After going thru 7 original Storms I was able to get the Storm#2. Unfortunately this new Storm is not working properly. this isn't supposed to happen with a new phone and new software. Hopefully my luck will change!

I went to Verizon today and tried both storms and I must say, the storm 1, with the update, was faster than the storm 2. I know you get 2gb of memory in the storm 2, but the storm 1 was just performing a lot better. Anyone else notice this??

It's time to be honest. Compared to the storm keyboard this "new an improved" screen is horrible. The phone feels dead to me. Definitely keepin my storm plus I don't miss out with the one actually good addition wifi. WOW! Something that i don't need because of the mandatory data plan. How about something useful does anybody know where I can find a do it yourself kit to customize my storm. Colorware no longer does it FYI

oh i want to add why everyone hatin on the storm2 geez guys relax... 0_0

Awesome video, cant wait to get mines tomorrow.

I think it's interesting that so many iphone users felt compelled to defend their phones because of a dumb commercial. Its not as if this were a personal attack on you. I think the iphone is a great phone, no doubt and if it were ever available on Verizon I might entertain the thought of switching-and not for the apps, but for the browser which RIM is still behind in its technology. The fact is that at&t's network is far inferior. Peace.

i just saw the S2 commercial for the first time in Game 1 of the WS just now...hope its alot better than S1, still gonna stick with my tour tho.. : )

Got it today (actually got 2) and it is as fast as the commercial! THIS is an awesome phone. I didn't have that many problems with my first Storm but this one..........mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!
BTW- needed tech support to help figure out my e-mail's not coming in- they tried to tell me I didn't have a Storm2-- they didn't know it was out yet! lol You would think someone would let them know already. lol

Got the storm 2 today and its awesome ! , so easy to type on the lock screen is really sweet im very happy :) iphone users ...pathetic trend you fell into, all i can say.

seriously? everyone is complaining about APPS?? WOW!!! ok so we are talking about the bajillion apps that the iphone has that are all little kiddie games? is this seriously the arguement here? iphone is a childs toy, blackberry is a big boy phone.
every time someone tells me about an iphone app its something I have NO interest in. atleast BB has apps that actually makes me PRODUCTIVE!!!

Great music!

Love it!

just got back from the Verizon store. it was like deja vu all over again. not impressed at all =/

first to get one at my verizon store i love it its so much better than the first.

I am interested in the Storm2 more or less for the wifi aspect that isn't included in the Storm1....

Tried to find this already but didn't see it...

Anybody know how long they will have the BOGO for???

Don't want to go out and buy one and have basically the same phone I have now....waiting for android but Storm2 sounds nice...

So is this gonna be another cool wallpaper that doesn't come with the phone?

Apps are software, and a ton is a unit of weight; therefore, the ton is not a correct measurement for the amount of apps thus showing how dumb Verizon actually is

2010 probably not for the iPhone, Droid is very tempting only because it is something new and different, but at the end of the day you need to step back and take a look at what you need in a phone. For me the Blackberry delivers!! The Storm 1 and the Storm 2 is not something you pick up and enjoy right away. Although that would be nice, you need to tough it out and get used to it and make it work for you.

Will be interesting to see what Droid does for VZW, especially for BB who crave the Iphone. And then announcement today that VZW may be selling Iphone in 2010. What does all that mean for BB Storm 2? Guess time will tell, but my guess is many Storm users would leap over to one or the other given a choice (RIM has not been endearing to BB Storm users).

So if Storm 2 is the "Perfect Storm," then if/when RIM releases the Storm 3, what will that be?

That commercial was CHEESY!

I swear Verizon has balls. They make the "Perfect Storm" but don't have a crap about the Storm1.

No this time big red, I'm not going to sign 2yr contract for the same crap I already have. I went to V.store this morning just to check storm 2 and I scream " you lie." the only improvement is typing. it's not worth your money.

Listen you Iphone slappys. at&t is pathetic in my area. Sad that you patrol the Blackberry site to get your digs in. Why aren't you playing with you 1 million apps right now? Storm 2 has two great things going for it.
1) It is not on the at&t network
2) It is a Blackberry

That is good enough for me. Also, does anyone remember when Apple was running commercials non-stop for 6 months this year then all of a sudden they launch the 3GS? Screw you losers who bought in to the slower crap just prior. No thanks, Verizon service is the best. I will be ready for the Verizon Iphone in two years.

Ordered mine today. Can't wait to get it. This will be my first BB.

Man you guys do a lot of trashing!!

I LOVE MY STORM2!!!!! Just thought I would let everyone know =)

The perfect storm...that no one saw...

gg RIM/Verizon

Also, "Tons of Apps"....WTF??? Sure, App World has a few, the only question is how many of those are readily usable on the Storm 2??

SWEET THE STORM2 IS FIANLLY HERE! Now when is the Storm3 coming out?!?!?!?

That's a great commercial...I'm quite impressed! Like drPheta I put my Storm 1 up to the video and my rotation speed was just about the same as the Storm in the commercial. And as far as apps go, "tons" is pretty generic, so there's no false advertising there either. As far as I'm concerned there really are "tons" of apps for the Storm. True there are technically more for the iPhone, but most of them are just 50 different variations of the same thing.

I never had the storm 1 and this is mu upgrade from a pearl and this phone is awesome. !!! i think the driod is ugly, this phone rocks. Now i need to buy cool stuff.

I have the Storm 1, but it is really hard to see me liking the STORM2 over the Droid. 11/6 I think I'll have the Droid... I think the timing of this release so close to the awesome looking Droid might hurt it somewhat ..

Actually, that's a pretty accurate representation of the switching from portrait to landscape. I did it with my phone (Storm 1 w/ 5.0.328 comparing it to the commercial, and it's pretty darned quick.

I'm happy to have OS 5.0 on my phone. Hope the OS 5.0 and Storm 2 redeems RIM's messups with the Storm 1

looks sick! i cant wait to get one... oh wait ;D

My favorite part is when they slam AT&T at the end :)

rim is really churning these blackberrys out before christmas...i went to the store...i tried the storm2 and i'm sticking with my storm1 for now...not a big difference from what i already have.

I didn't know lightning struck once! Lol.

Does anyone know where to get that wallpaper on this storm ? would love to put in on my Storm1

ok it might not have as many apps as the iphone but how many of the iphone are duplicates if not more, how many does rim not allow because they don't want to, im sorry it is a great commercial it got your attention and it will stay in your head, its whole purpose....btw why not U2 as the music???

i want this background!!!!!

They did not say tons more than iphone just tons of apps.

They're really saying "tons of apps" -- after iTunes App Store just reached 100K apps?! The factual pros of the Storm2 are good enough.

Switchfoot! AWESOME!

damn it looks soo good, they did a good job on this one, but im still going to get the 9700

I dont know how it will perform in my hands but i gotta say that is the coolest commercial for a phone i have ever seen and now i want it bad!

False advertising to the fullest. "Tons of Apps"????
Yeah right, tons of crappy, overpriced terrible looking apps is more like it. Ultra responsive? Freakin retarded...

"Tons of apps"... yeah... ok. :rolleyes:

I don't think Verizon knows the definition of TONS. lol

wuhuuuuuu, hardcore to see that verizon is bringing At&t into play - 5 times as fast as at&t haha. i never saw comparing adverts before ;)

Is it really so responsive that the keyboard will shift to landscape mode before the phone is fully turned?

first...should i get one?
