Rene13 Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Hi guys, Sorry to bother you again but completely changed my mind now... Instead of the Iphone I'm intending of buying the Blackberry Storm now. I have a 350Z 2006 model with telephone craddle working perfectly with my bluetooth enabled mobile phone. Does it communicates with the BB Storm too? According to the sales person in shop I need to check with Nissan as the car is 3 years old??? Any Blackberry Storm users out there that can shed a light on this? Rene Quote
IanS Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 works ok with a BB Pearl...if thats any use Quote
jamesyj Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 No problems with my Pearl. Just set the phone to automatically connect Quote
mwalker56 Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Just for completeness if anyone is reading this in the future, works fine with the Blackberry Storm Quote
Zazur Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Hi Rene, DO NOT BUY A BLACKBERRY STORM! They are crap I have had mine for 3 months now and it's faults are:- It freezes the screen. It can switch off when you receive a call, text or a email and can take upto 15 mins to restart again so you can use it. You have to redo your contacts if you travel abroad because the software cannot work out that the number in your contacts has a +44 code before it and will only show the number calling and not the name. My phone also chooses to not fully charge the battery and it will switch off with no battery left after only 6 hours with no calls. These are all known faults to Blackberry who do not want to fix the software problems. This does not effect other phones just the Storm with the touch screen. If you still want one you can buy mine cheap if you like Quote

Zazur Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Ian, Your lucky then I know of 28 that have the same problems as mine and Blackberry will not fix them. Quote
mwalker56 Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 mine was sh!te but got much much better after some serious firmware updates. Doesnt crash anymore Quote
Zazur Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 mine was sh!te but got much much better after some serious firmware updates. Doesnt crash anymore Where did you get your updates from? Quote
Ian Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Whats wrong with the iphone??? i would have had to pay for the iphone whereas the blackberry was free Quote
sunset350z Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 You can get an iphone free. Phone O2 when your contract is due for renewal and ask for a reconditioned iphone. It will be as new condition and totally free. Quote
Pimm Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 mine was sh!te but got much much better after some serious firmware updates. Doesnt crash anymore +1 above. I have had mine for 4 months and i love the phone. Touch screen takes a little time to get used to but does everything and more. Quote
