Of course it will. What's the point of unlocking it unless you plan on going to another country sometime soon? Unlocking doesn't get rid of the Rogers stuff, unless you debranded it/flashed the firmware too. |
hmm... i read otherwise on blackberryforums.com |

Just call Rogers and ask before you do anything, but speak to somebody who isn't a Tier 1 retard. I can't imagine Rogers being okay with anyone removing their network locks. |

I have no interest in having a photo but the art is pretty cool. I just didnt see any that said "This is Tara's Phone" But I need to do another browse when I get home from work.
Do I have to order online or can I go to their actual location? |
All online...
www.gelaskins.com for the cool art...
www.uniqueskins.com for the customized ones... |

So Im seriously thinking about this.
Do they protect REALLY well... Im worried about throwing in in my purse and such.
Did you get the front screen protector? If you did, did you like it? How was it in the sun?
Thanks :) |
Yes I've got one from Gelaskins...
It's been great...
I did order the screen protector and it's been fine...
Gelaskins is local as well might I add... |

| So my dad just got the BB Storm today (for free from telus) we have been fooling around with it for the last hour or so ... IMO the iPhone is much easier to use the clicking the screen gets really annoying but nonetheless an interesting piece of equipment much more professional as you would of already guessed ... and the Camera is so much better and has a really bright flash ... /End |

I was at Telus & Bell today, both offered so much discounts and insane amount of things waived trying to get my to sign for it.
Basicly, they both offered me $150 for the unit and VP+DATA for $35/ month - 3 YR Contract. Even more discount if I cut my Rogers service & port my number over. *cough cough* Only offered for new activation and if your existing customer, you can't get the unit. *they're pulling the Verizion scams*
I never seen such beggin from reps before ... when I walked away, every single one of them were so mad and dissapointed. |

Verizon BlackBerry Storm Return Rate

Here’s the skinny on this situation… We had heard various return rates on the Verizon BlackBerry Storm from three (actually four, but we’ll discount the last one) extremely credible sources of ours. These ranged from 35-50% in some markets/regions. That is an absurdly high figure, folks. While we trust our sources, we wanted to continue to dig until we wrote up a post on it here. We let a publication quote us on that, because that is what we had heard. No harm, no foul. But we weren’t going to post on it here until we had 100% confirmed it.
Verizon Wireless hit us up and here’s what a Verizon Wireless official had to say: “The Storm has the lowest return rate of any of our PDAs and at this point in its life cycle, it has the lowest return rate of any PDA we currently sell.”
*** When I tried it out, it seem slow, but not like the ones ppl are reporting in the states *** |
