Blackberry Storm

Soon enough I will tell the masses (that's you Erik!) about my experiences with the Blackberry Storm.  First, I'm going to make fun of MSNBC.  I'm just going to say that I don't trust a tech column written by the lady in that picture.  Maybe I'm being judgmental to a fault but that picture just doesn't scream "Cutting Edge" to me. The fact that this article was written on 12/10 (Wednesday) even though the update was released for download the Friday before and available over the air on Monday, and the author only noticed the update icon show up Tuesday evening only adds to my concerns.  Now I'll question journalistic integrity.  The below quote claims to include an e-mail from a fellow storm user with typos.  l e a r n r n g...  that second r is nowhere near the i they were intending.  Blackberry's fault?  u... they're tying in shorthand so who knows what  texting language they may have been attempting and what autocorrect predictive text adjustments the blackberry software may have been trying to make? ko... k n o w...  how'd they mess that one up?  That's only two keystrokes on a screen designed to tell you exactly when you've actually pressed a button!  qhw? qhw.?  when?  Maybe the keystrokes on the left thumb are shifted over one?  And finally, ag = at (aiming too low for the t obviously) and kwyboafd (they pretty much manage to screw up every button they use their left hand on for this).

I don't want to go and call this downright fake, but I do think that the person who may have been sending the e-mail was trying to type as fast as possible to exaggerate the errors and make a good point for an article that was two days late and a dollar short of content.
