The Official BlackBerry Storm 9530 Pre-Release Thread 3 (Off Topic Posts=1 Day Ban)

[opel]

wish they would just release the thing >:|. Anyway hopefuly those "new" data plans do come out with the phone, and can't wait to blow all my money on this phone

yea, and hopefully the data plans are somewhat cheaper!

Hmmm, more conflicting info.

[0mie]

wish they would do a Storm hunt for los angeles!

This is for the entire US

[ushneb]

I will upload all the clues on here for anyone actually going to the locations...

Once you find the Storm, text the keyword you get to 41039

Are the keywords just the actual places the clues are pointing us to? Like if I know what one of the clues is indicating, I would just text the name of the establishment to 41039?

[Grovesfan]

If the contest is for the whole US, how is it possible to visit each location to find the clue?

Hmmmm, VZW should fire their editors who went over the contest 'fine print' before they released them.

$299 vs $549, and now this 18 yrs vs 21 yrs age requirement.

[cuttme2pieces]

i think it is saying 18 for the general contest and the ** for 21 yrs is next to the people sexiest man party prize.

mine is not down but the maps are showing for the NYC hunt

[haticK]

obviously if the hunt is in nyc but its open to the whole country they are wanting people to post the keywords online...lets get moving new yorkers

[ushneb]

Only one entry per day, so even if we find out more than 1 we can only send in 1 per day.

Umm, no...That's to complicated

[cuttme2pieces]

Umm, no...That's to complicated

any other hints? i'm in new york so going to a few places (especially the ones all clumped together) isn't tough. do the clues so that everybody can participate have to do with the photos of the locations on the map? i don't see anything when you go to the google map's version that would signify a keyword.

and should we expect a text back when we submit one to confirm that it was accepted?

new vid about the ViiGo app just got posted @ crackberry

[bighap]

Finally a substantial video. Looks great considering the hardware and software are both still in beta testing. My patience is getting stretched to the limit, but Verizon is doing the right thing by getting the kinks worked out prior to releasing such a high profile phone. Maybe the fruit company will get it right their third time around the block.
