"Fundamentally flawed"
What I like:
it plays music
What I don't like:
hard to send text,very unreliable, no radio
Review:
Without doubt the most unreliable product I have ever used. Shortly will be on my 3rd replacement via my company, problems include, leading to replacements:
1. No audible ringing tone despite all icons correct
2. Trackerball scrolls down but not back
3. Transmitter automatically switching itself off
A true lemon in my becoming bitter experience

BlackBerry Storm 2
Clicking touchscreen may be useful for clumsy people, but ditching the Qwerty keyboard has its drawbacks

Sluggish at times, and not the easiest phone to use, but it offers a great range of features at a low price
