 Not me, I had enough with the Storm 1! Actually, I did think hard about waiting for the Storm 2 when I bought the Tour in July, touchscreen keyboards are just not for me. I dont regret it by the way, love the Tour! |

I'm considering it. If it comes out soon, I'll probably return the Tour and get the Storm2 instead.
I have some faith in the Storm2.

Adding Wi-Fi isn't reason enough to upgrade to the Storm 2. I think I will wait for additional modifications before even considering it. I do love my Storm though!

If you liked the Storm, then the Storm2 seems to be a good upgrade. Sounds like they improved upon the clickable screen, added WiFi and refined the overall feel of the device.
I cannot fit the Storm2 into my budget. I see plenty of the first generation Storm devices around, so I have no reason to believe this wouldn't be a popular device. |

If my company doesn't pay for it then I won't be upgrading and since we are on Sprint, doesn't look like it i in the cards.
There are many more improvements than just WiFi so if you were a "maybe" you should take a look....The screen change could just be what they should have done in the first place....

After updating to 5.0, I see no other reason to upgrade to the storm 2, unless wifi is the only reason,...As it looks right now, Im waiting to find out more about the Motorola Droid to honest..The storm 1 is the same as 2, except for the wifi and the sure press screen, i dont think its enough to make me cough up 180$ and a 2 year agreement...Ciao for now for the storm,..it was a lousy 10 months of owning a storm, it just now got better, to late for the storm 2 in my opinion, i was really waiting for the storm 2, but nothing really special about that absolutely makes it different from the storm 1,...buh bye blackberry storm, hello Motorola Droid, or Iphone...

It's only been a couple of days since upgrading my software but I do see some subtle changes that makes me very happy with my current Storm. It seems to respond faster to my commands. I am loading web pages quicker and the typing seems more responsive. Not too crazy about the new SMS layout but it's to early say for sure. My battery is definitely holding a better charge since the update.... I'd like the Storm 2 for the Wi-Fi just doesn't seem like a good enough reason to upgrade for it since the 5.0 updates.

Ms.Nette, what version did you upgrade to? I understand the recent upgrades have improved the Storm 1's performance greatly.
I hope that has been your experience....
