With any other carrier, it would be, but with it being Verizon, you never really know until the phone is actually out.
yeah that's got me a little confused.......like if it's tactile feedback then that just means that it vibrates with each button touch like the Choclate or the Voyager does
According to the VZW rep I've spoken with (who's played around with the Storm), it doesn't vibrate when you touch the screen...you get the sensation of a slight "click" underneath your fingers...letting you know that your touch was confirmed.
You are quite right about that. Though you don't get the sensation of it clicking. The entire screen does actually click. It sounds kinda weird, i know, but it does actually feel like an actual button. I have typed on on already and it is really cool. The whole screen kinda "floats" on a membrane which operates the click. And yes it is coming out on the 21st as mentioned before.
okay.......that's odd....i'm really curious now.....i wonder when the Verizon stores in the area are getting it
