Tech Review

Here's an update to my Storm posts. I had made peace with the dead pixels on my Blackberry Storm. I did this by looking at the phone as a tool and not as a source of joy. In other words, I matured. I actually felt bad for RIM and Verizon too, having to give one dude four phones.

So, I went to the Verizon store to activate my wife's new Samsung SCH-U740, the Alias. I started a conversation with customer service young lady, as I'm annoyingly conversation-inclined (Cuban). I told her about the pixels and without me telling her anything except that I was over my 30-day return window, she called the Verizon customer service store and ordered me a new Blackberry Storm. It came today. In addition to not having any dead pixels, the screen clicks 400% better than in any of my three previous Storms. I love it now! I will now de-mature. Bottom line: If you're on the fence about the Storm, go ahead and try it.
