[citation][nom]formin[/nom]just 12 years ago, those were the specs of a desktop PC. crazy![/citation]

Actually... barely 11 years ago. It was 2000 when the 1Ghz CPUs first hit the market. 2001 when 1.2Ghz was available for mass market.

PC Desktop memory was still in the megabytes... when Windows XP hit the market, the market for more memory... such as 256 or 512mb really hit. Far tiny compared to todays 8~16GB cell phones... but that memory usage is more for data storage of our photos, music and video.... wait a minute.

in 2000~2001, the typical 3.5" HARD DRIVE was an 8~15GB! Our 4/8/16GB SD-mini cards are smaller than a postage stamp!

Checkout wikipedia and goto wiki/Hard_disk_drive and check out the photo of 6 drive sizes.

I do like blackberries, but not a fan of touch screens - still, seems i'm in the minority there, so fair enough.

[citation][nom]scook9[/nom]To true. Had the original Storm....so now I have a Droid Incredible (that phone that WORKS...POS BB storm)This is the first phone I have seen from BlackBerry that is not a year out of data at launch. It is also interesting to see that it will not be a Verizon (CDMA) phone as the last 2 storms were Verizon exclusive[/citation]

1) Who says it's not a year out of date... it might not launch for another year. 2) It is quad-band (meaning yes to CDMA) just like the original Storm and Storm 2, so it could be a VZ exclusive all the same (although its doubtful as VZ is more than happy to pimp Android and iStuff).

It's not a year out of date? By the time it comes out it will be over a year out of date. I have the original BB Storm and that was closest BB has been to 'up-to-date' on their hardware.

I was a BB loyalist for many years, I fiercely defended them but now that Android based phones are becoming more in-tune with enterprise solutions, BB is just no longer the leader...

RIP BB

[citation][nom]JOSHSKORN[/nom]Also, screen size needs to be that of the DROID X at least. I'm not buying this phone.[/citation]

Not everyone want's a huge touchscreen though. That's why the Droid Incredible did so well: great hardware in a smaller (3.7-inch screen) form factor. And since BB goes for business users who don't want a giant 4-, 4.3- or 4.5-inch screen, a 3.7-inch display makes perfect sense.

Blackberries are for adults, they're not for gamer geeks and tools who wanna beat off in the bathroom at school with their Android phones and downloaded porn. Leave the BB talk for the grown ups.

Leave it to an "adult" to call users of a premier mobile OS geeks and tools.

[citation][nom]eekitsericc[/nom]Not every phone has to be the latest and greatest to be successful. Plus, I thought Honeycomb was for tablets anyway.[/citation]

for a blackberry, this phone looks pretty damn sweet, but it needs to be released NOW for it to be worth my consideration. In 6 more months, the high-end competition will make this phone look last generation, and that is no fun at all.

Leave it to an Android user to automagically escalate their mobile platform of choice to "premier" just because it's moved a lot of handsets. Next you will be telling us McDonalds is the "premier" food choice for the developed world since they have the most locations and have served the most meals out of any choice...

Actually I use a BlackBerry, but good guess, I suppose.

Android is a premier OS for a multitude of reasons, from developer support growing exponentially to the fantastic hardware being created by the likes of HTC, Motorola and Samsung.

edit
To be clear I am not saying Android is THE premier operating system for smartphones. Rather I am putting it in the same "premier" category that is shared by the likes of BlackBerry OS and iOS).

Looks nice, but if it performs anything like the other crapberries I've owned, I won't bother looking at this phone. 3G, really? Anything worth while is moving towards 4G, so why introduce a new top of the line phone without 4G? Someone dropped the ball while designing this phone.
