This article says ATT is getting the BB Storm
I don't know how they do it but ATT sure seems to get allot of phones.
Though, it will be interesting to see how people will market it in store:
"Hey Mr. Smith! Remember last year when I talked you into coming over from Verizon to ATT to get our iphone because all they had was that Blackberry I told you was a piece of crap? Well, it turns out it was so popular that my company is offering it too! Would you be interested in an early upgrade so you can get the phone you wanted originally on my network?"
Then again, the same thing will be repeated when Verizon gets the iphone, well almost the same thing. Most of the people I know who actively "bash" the iphone to make sales go after the network more than the device.. but we'll see.
The iPhone on Verizon....will never be....
I know this is hard, but replying to every post mentioning a verizon phone with "they crippled the UI" isn't witty or creative.

how was the storm locked down again? It supported GPS from the box, was a global roaming phone, and runs blackberries OS.

actually, at&t locks down more stuff on their phones than verizon does. yes verizon has a standard UI, but so does microsoft and apple. even linux for that matter... but you still use a computer. but at&t is far worse now than verizon ever was about their phones.
Now That's funny.......
and then you woke up....... 🤣

no joe... what's funny is that i was stating that computer manufactures have 3 os's to choose from and they all have their own ui... you missed that part and said something about symbian. i didn't know symbian was such a major player in computer os field but you must know something i don't. also, i worked for at&t and used verizon and i know for a FACT that at&t locks down more things than verizon... you use unlocked phones, so your argument is not valid. so, you can say i'm wrong all you want, but i'm in the industry and know a little more than you.
I don;t care about computer operating systems reworked for mobile phones. I care about MOBILE centric operating systems like Symbian, Android...

also, you jump around a lot. back to the point i was making was that you said something about verizon's ui... i was stating that ui is important, just like the computer you are using to post this has a standard gui...
