Vodafone demonstration video shows you how to use the BlackBerry Storm

by Darren Murph posted Oct 15th 2008 at 8:35AM

Not that you really needed any additional instructions on how to operate the BlackBerry Storm, but just in case you're a little slow on the uptake (or just want to be ultra-prepared come launch day), you'll certainly want to direct your attention to the video after the break. Yeah, it's a Vodafone Storm, so those looking for the typical Verizon garb will be a tad disoriented at first, but we're sure it'll be of assistance in the long run. Run along and study, kids -- release day is, um, soon... ish.

Like Apple, (sort of) RIM makes their own stuff. Software, hardware, so, this seems pretty tightly integrated. Anyone else thing so? Seems a bit sluggish though.

I gotta admit that video kinda turned me off from it. Things like the music player section just looked so plain.

If you're basing your decision on the 'plain'-ness of the UI and not the functionality of the phone itself, you probably shouldn't get it.

This phone is about function, not looking pretty.

the media player doesn't seem to have much improvement from previous versions besides a new skin. maybe more codecs and streaming support ?

After watching the video, it seems that there is an inherent handicap with this touchscreen style phone. I wonder why RIM didn't want to put the nearly recognizable scroll ball from the Curve, Pearl, and Worldphone on the Storm.

This would help with selecting text and scrolling. Rather than always having to drag.

Looks tart compared to Iphone. Does Storm have voice dialing? one thing Iphone does not feature, the other being a convenient way to search for a contact name without having to scroll thru the alphabet.
