They are the full size as well (360×480)

Right now the key lights up blue which some people have claimed is not that useful.

RIM can make this much better than Apple iPhone, very easily.

Here are a couple of choices:

1) ghost the character that is touched (not pressed yet) so the user can SEE which key the thumb is over. If it’s the correct key, the user can can press down to finalize the key. (With iPhone this is impossible because the key is already pressed when it shows up on the screen.)

2) To be extremely annoying, but in the same manner as above, the phone can call out each letter before the press. This would be GREAT for people with vision problems.

Like I’ve been saying, the extra degree of freedom in the z-axis (ie. the ability to select X,Y,1 or X,Y,2) has huge implications for future capabilities.

Even if the Storm doesn’t stomp on the iPhone, the Storm will be a serious contender. If RIM can get Verizon to allow the public access to write apps for the appstore, the Storm might become a really great consumer device.
