the pp will be awesome-cant say exactly what u can get right now, but worth it.
but i advise not to have one-as 90% of corsasport will say dont get one...................
I said near the start that people who have blackberrys currently will want one because it's just like a blackberry, which I still stand by.

In general yes I agree phonmes have become too big for my liking.
The iPhone however is too big and tbh too ncie to be a phone... to the point that i know several people who have them who have cheap shitty payg phones to take out with them most places cos they dotn wanna take their iphone 
that said, the 2g version is ugly as sin... the 3g version is much ncier a sits more like the itouch
hate to say it but in 2 or 3 generations time i can see myself havign an iphone

Was going to get a Bold as a stop gap, but didn't in the end. It had wifi & I don't want a phone with wifi on it

http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/vodafones-blackberry-storm-pricing-plans-eek-out/
The Perfect Choice Access 100 plan will get you a Storm for €109.99 ($141), while the per-month rate (€49.99; $64) will include 100 minutes (yes, seriously), 100 texts (still for real here, people), 1GB of BlackBerry e-mail, mobile TV and ten music downloads. The Perfect Choice Access 200 / 400 / 600 plans bump up the minutes and texts just as you'd expect for €64.99 / €84.99 / €99.99 per month while netting you the phone for €64.99 / €69.99 / €49.99, respectively
I hope that's not the plans they're using here.
100 mins (although I usued 95 minutes of my 1000 last month)

Plans aren't that good are they.
18 months is the lowest you can get unless you want to spend 300 quid on the phone, £40 a month for 600 mins, unlimited texts and browsing.
Or 35 for the same if you sign up for 2 years.
Who will use a phone thats already outdated for 2 years

incorrect.
majority of corporate and enterprise customers are on 24 month contracts anyways, and the above 18m tariff u mentioned with a cost towards the phone? no.
i personally dont agree with 24month contracts but people will have them. laptope deals are 24 month deals, and laptops go out of fashion quicker than phones.

It's not incorrect, it's the tarrifs that the public will be getting that I just got from the pre order site.
I said right at the start company high flyers would want one.
How do you expect to beat the iphone with a phone that's not as good and tariffs that aren't very good either though?

iphone £35 a month, pay £100 for the phone,600 mins 500 texts. 18m contract
bbstorm £40 a month, phone foc, 600 mins, unltd sms, unlimited data, unlimited sat nav, unlimited BBm, and use of the blackberry push servers. 18m.
thats how the tariff is better. 40x18 = 720. 35x18 plus 100 cost of phone is 730. simple maths tbh

I wasn't comparing the tariff to the ophone tariff, i didn't think that was very good either.
It's not a very good tariff in general.

ok.
a normal tariff now is around £35 for tariff (mins, texts, data)
then bb server £10 extra.
tariffs are pretty good.
especially as they are smack back on the ARPU.
winner tbh
