Default garmin replacement

I got a blackberry storm and going to buy garmin mobile to replace the 205w. So far I like the storm.

But wouldn't the garmin mobile do the same things or better yet not do the things that you wanted the 205 to do? And doesn't the Storm have its own GPS?

Let me know what you think of the Storm after playing with it more. I want the Treo Pro but I can't get it here. People have been telling me about the Storm but its not provided by my cell company yet. I just heard rumors that it will be here before the summer so I might think about that as my next phone.

Congrats on the purchase Trip. I love my Storm and find out new shit every day. If there's anything you need help with or are trying to setup, hit me up with a PM, or PIN me at 30488BF2.

Flexin, I'm envious. The Storm coming to Rogers is WiFi enabled. That's the one thing I wish my phone had.

Yeah I heard that too. But until I heard that I didn't know the regular Storm didn't have wi fi. If I knew that I might not even be looking at it.

Garmin mobile will do the same thing as the 205 but get a storm too. Vow gps is 10 a month where garmin mobile is a one time fee and its garmin maps.

Exactly.


Be fortunate, they changed the way they used the GPS features... you used to not be able to use anything other than Verz's shitty GPS features, couldn't tie it to another device....

I'm with a couple others here in hoping that you'll let us know how you like it... my concern would be having my expensive,non-weather resistant phone riding in the breeze on my bike...of course,I'm sure that you got the insurance,right? Oh and Verizon's outrageous smart phone monthly fee...

I'm paying about the same as I would an iphone in package plus I get a discount with vzw because of who I work for. So monthly is cheaper than a similar iphone plan for me. I like it a lot so far. I will post up when I get garmin for bb.
