This will determine a lot.
Emails, calling, surfing, gaming, text/bbming, etc.

exstasie...all of the above..lol
I dont know if these can be used as memory devices as I couldnt find anything mentioned on any about this(my current moto i876 can be used as an external card reader/storage device as well and it's very very handy)
I also need it to be able to charge via usb (another detail I had trouble finding).
I'm somewhat leaning towards the storm but the dare seems really good too...oddly on the telus site, the dare is listed under "mobile phones" and is not considered a smarphone :s (what really classifies a phone to be smart?)

Go with the Storm, wait for the Storm 2 if you can.

that would be ideal but I guess it would be pricier than even the HTC touch pro 2...(currently at 249 on a 3 yr contract..ouch)
seems like the main con of the original storm was the pressure sensitivity of the touch screen which has now been fixed. (pressure sensitive touch screen seems better for my stubby fingers..lol)

alright i've decided to get the Storm...seems to be among the cheapest of the lot that will support HSPA and the complaints of the short battery life are now null since the latest software for it uses less.
of course the storm 2, omnia 2 and HTC TP2 are better but way out of my budget..

The new Storm doesnt even have the push down screen, its more vibration senser.
I want a Storm sooo bad.
P.S. Never buy an LG
