BlackBerry Storm 9530
Software downgrade and upcoming update...False rumor?
Author's note: There were rumors of a last minute software downgrade with an impending update coming, which is why we held off on publishing our review for a few days, but RIM has addressed the issue and this has turned out to be false. Still, we think they have to be working on something given how bad the menu runs. We are rating the device in its current state, but if there are any major upgrades that change the user experience we will update our review accordingly.

It appears to be true
Just got mine today and the BB Desktop manager downloaded a patch or update of some kind into my BB.
1st or second week of December are the rumors for the updates

My inside sources say otherwise...that there is going to be a software update in the near future. I guess we'll just wait and see.
What sources? All the insiders that said it was coming have now back tracked and RIM themselves has said the updates software has never existed.

We shall see!
Yes we shall, and I hope we see very soon...or I might end up with one of them sweet looking Samsung touch phones. I have decided to hold of on the Bold and hope the Storm becomes an acceptable phone soon, but if it doesn't I will not be able to wait forever and have to switch to a WM phone.

BTW, my Storm has few issues. It so far has been a very usable phone out of the box.
A wacky accelerometer is the most annoying one. Lag can be drastically reduced by tweeking settings

And why do you think they would not list the major issues if they were actually addressed??? Self delusion seems to be reigning supreme among Verizon/RIM fanboys when it comes to this phone.
So are annoying people that just want to bash everything. There plenty of your type in every forum on phone scoop.
As I have said before, I'll take the fanboy putdown as a compliment.
No self delusion here, I just have a great phone 😎

The only annoying people here as shills like yourself trying to sell people a defective product.
Like I said before:
-I am no sales person
-I have a Storm that works
-sorry your 3 didn't work out?
-Go get another type of phone you are happy with
-Sorry not every last person out there agrees with you
Because you claim you got 3 "defective "phones doesn't mean mine is defective. If I got 3 defective Storms, I would be looking elsewhere...sheesh there must be something you like about this phone if you tried to get 3 of them 🤣
why are you here again? to bash or to help? Were you told by some higher power that you had to warn everyone to stay away from the Storm?
