I want a phone that can make calls, send texts, and serve as an alarm. The day I check my work email from my phone on the Metro is the day life has become too serious.
Most Blackberries are hardly smartphones though, they are just push-email enabled phones with keyboards. Their focus is email.
The only times I've ever used email from my phone was to log into my yahoo via the internet browser
Music, tv shows, google maps integrated with GPS, stuff like that is while I love my Xperia.
I got the Storm, the current version sucks. I think there were few phones released (some stores only had 4, some stores didn't have any) because they newest software was jacked up. You can tell they had to revert to and older version of software. Hopefully the issues will be addressed, then the phone will be bad ass.

I voluntarily put my work email to my phone. It has helped me at times when I absolutely had to email back and forth, but I make sure I'm not tied to the hip with work email. It's all about self control

Damn, that is sexy.
I had the Pearl but downgraded. I'm no techy. Simple is best. Never will I splurge money on a phone.

That was me, I fully understand. I still don't answer mine half the time, nor know where it is. I don't text as it takes 15 minutes per sentence.

i just went into a Verizon store to try the blackberry storm. If you thought it's annoying to type on an IPhone, it's has nothing on the Storm. You do feel a tactile response when you do press on the "button" key, but it feels nowhere close to pressing down on a button. As a result, you have to press down on every button when you want to type and it can get very annoying fast.
If you constantly need to email, I would stay away from the storm and stick to a regular smartphone with buttons.
