Got a BlackBerry Storm for Christmas... I'm posting this message from my Storm right now. I have an unlimited data plan, so I can post, text, browse, and I'm to my hearts content... As of right now there is no Xfire app, but I've got Windows Live and AIM...

Above message copy/pasted from the Yoyorast.com Forums.

(eat that iPhone users).

Lol very nice, if I had a choice I'd have picked iPhone. But they are ludicrously expensive. £342.95 ($500 cuz of stupid exchange rate no, it was same price when released, that was worth $700) for a Pay as you Go 8gb iPhone. Yeah screw that.

So how you finding it, fun? Does it have a music player like iPhone?

It's got full media functionality, meaning that it plays all my audio files straight off my PC with no need for conversion. It plays videos as well, but they have to be converted to MP4 and 480x*** resolution.

Like I said from my Storm, I've got unlimited data so I can stream YouTube/browse/text/email/etc as much as I want and it only costs the monthly fee. $45 for the data plan, $20-$25 phone plan, and a $7.50 access fee comes out to around $70-$80 a month. I know iPhone users that get less functionality for over $100 a month.

This is basically the ultimate touchscreen phone in my opinion, and I've actually used both the iPhone and this Storm for about the same amount of time now so I'm fairly unbiased. I may be partially biased because I still believe that PC's are better than Mac's/Apple products in general and I'll use a similar product from another company if given a choice between Apple and "Other".
