Problems with the Storm - Vodafone in the UK, some help please.

[ Edited ]

Hi all, I've just received my Storm on Vodafone in the UK and I've got some problems.

 

1. The whole phone seems a bit slow, certainly much slower than my iPhone, is this usual or do I need a software update if there is such a thing.

 

2. The green 'answer call' key has to be pressed quite hard for it to register to enter phone mode or do dial a number once entered, is this an error?

 

3. Will there be a GSM version of the phone released without the horrible Vodafone software on it? I have a Nokia N95 once with vodafone software on it and it was dreadful, returned it and got a GSM version just with Nokias own software and it was excellent, will Blackberry do the same?

 

4. I can't seem to sync the phone to my Mac, I've tried using PocketMac, but it just comes up with an error.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

 

Aubrey

I you have one of the New iMac the aliminium one's i.e. as pic below there is an issue with USB drivers.As for the Green phone button mine works fine although you can catch it putting it into the leather pouch that come with it

 

Slow yes I would agree with that and certainly compared to the iPhone first boot up on mine takes a few minutes 

 

but there are some really cool feature on there that an iPhone doesn't have which i really likeespecially in the calendar and with emails so i caput up with the slowness i just see it as a trade off :smileyhappy:
