@fatslug You forgot the smart ass comment about Microsoft that Apple can't get though ANY press conference without making.

@Comment, first off I will most likely buy this phone when it comes out, and keep my DROID as well, but I'm not buying the iPhone comment. I had a 2G, 3G, and 3GS iPhone so I am somewhat familiar with them.

How does this phone blow it away? Because it has the 1Ghz snap dragon CPU and an OLED screen? 2.1 isn't anything revolutionary over 2.0. The next iPhone will be out in 6 months, so comparing 6 months new tech is kind of a wash.

There are many things I love about my Android phone, but there are also many things the iPhone does better.

I did it yesterday and it worked like a champ. A great phone is now even better, defiantly enjoy the new lock screen.

I will probably root my phone today.

That's a pretty sweet device.

Engadget ftw!

woot

Yay more goodies!

WM 6.5 FTW?

That screen makes up for it! :D

You can drag and drop files, I doubt there is much for 3rd party OSX sync apps.

Looks like a nice phone, but there is no way I would buy a non 2.0 Android phone now after having one.

The Storm was a good concept but not deliver at release, people generally had or have the following main problems.

1. The OS was not ready. If it had released with .148 the user experience would have been like night and day different.
2. Dust gets under the screen because of the space that allows the screen to move.
3. It is hard to click on the edges because of a single button under the screen.
4. Application memory leaks, and slow response from the phone.
5. The bottom buttons fall off, or have light bleed around them.

The Storm 2 rumored:

1. Will launch with 5.0, and will be 100x better experience at launch with .148 under their belt.
2. Screen is either now clickable with 5 button points instead of one, or fixed like the iPhone.
3. Double the RAM.
4. Bottom buttons made touch, no more falling off or LED bleeding through.
5. WiFi added.
6. Qualcom has no faster CPU to offer at the moment then what's in the Tour, so probably the same.

If true the Storm 2 will be a good phone, and an alternative to Blackberry users who want a little media punch for those plane rides.

I hope MS buys them and puts that OS on a Zune HD with Tegra.
