T&T: Blackberry 'Storm' Phon

[Phil de l'Etoile]

In a conversation with a fellow who has become "my Verizon Guy" in
recent years, I was told that they are having a lot of problems with
this model and high customer service complaints in his store.......

I also saw an unfavorable review recently, but don't recall the source.

The GPS unit worked well over the weekend, even suggesting we exit the highway to avoid an accident that was on the overpass.  Only issue seems to be a little latency in some of the applications, most likely due to the issue Jeff mentioned in his message.
