Not surprisingly, both drew mixed reviews, and neither saw big sales. And the Storms' screens depress when you tap or type on them, giving a strange sensation that many users dislike.
Unfortunately, the BlackBerry operating system and applications often haven't been optimized for touch interaction clicking can be difficult. Instead, users select links or position their cursor with their fingers and use a virtual on-screen keyboard to type. Neither Storm has a full keyboard, and neither includes a pointing device like the track balls and track pads that are found on other BlackBerry phones. Both phones represented a radical change for RIM. Over the past two years, the company introduced two successive touch-screen BlackBerry phones: the Storm and the Storm 2.
