I have always had Nokias, then jumped to a BB Curve and hated it. I got an iphone early December and it is something I use more and more. Contrary to popular opinion you can text fine on them, the auto correct feature is great too. Without opening the whole Apple debate Censored , it just does what it is supposed to without any drama. Porsche Cayenne S Diesel 66 Plate

WW don't think you read the Wozz's post too well Laughing Like Jay said no phone is perfect, but the iphone is a lot less perfect than the others. For me the 2 features I would change would be a better battery life and a better camera the useability of the phone is far superior to the BBs, then when you add the apps store you can make your phone really yours. Porsche Cayenne S Diesel 66 Plate

Bluetooth is usable (just) still does not support the full basics for BT 2.0
Text forwarding - excellent
MMS - yes, but it costs in addition to your tariff using the one listed. The others are boll Censored x, I beta tested one of them L322 Big Daddy SUPERCHARGED 5.0 Autobiography - Here & Now!

Yes you can mate. MMS from the app above but it will cost you 35p per message.

For text forwarding you need to install something called isms or something similar. I haven't done it myself as I am happy using email but I know of a few guys who have done and they seem happy with it. WINNER - 2009 Best Newcomer Award

United Kingdom 2008 Range Rover Sport TDV6 SE Java Black

Seems I should have read this thread before I bought by BB Storm ......

Has anyone else had any issues with pairing it with a computer? Whenever I do it the phone goes into a reboot loop and only stops when I turn off bluetooth on a laptop (tried 3 machines). Headsets work OK though via BT.

Anyway ... had it replaced 4 times now so it looks like a general fault on the phone but other than that I love it - my first ever non-Nokia. Am living without bluetooth comms but wondered if anyone had seen this on the BB Storm.

Sorry! RRS TDV6 SE Java Black +towpack +tintent +Permagrin

What a difference between this and my old Disco3

I love my storm and had no issues with it so far.

I connect to my laptop via a USB cable and it works fine, transferred loads of movies to the phone which I watch when I use the train to work.

The phone pared with my RRS with no effort at all and now auto connects when ever I get in the car.

I'm sure the iphone is loads better if you want a toy that makes phone calls but other than that my phone does what I need it to do.
