    I am not sure if the two products are really comparable as they are meant for a different target group. The Storm is a business phone while the 5580 with 1 year free music download is a music player. It the first attempt of both companies towards touch screen and nothing more or less.

    This isn’t even a contest..but it shouldn’t have been.RIM have made a serious error by not including WiFi.What the hell were they thinking?. I wouldn’t even consider the Storm ,(which is probably an excellent phone), without WiFi, and since it doesn’t have that,I won’t be getting it and any other touchscreren smartphone WITH WiFi jumps ahead in the cue by default.I don’t care what else RIM have included on the Storm.No WiFi no buy.

    Thanks for the post. I think both are good phones and have their pros and cons for different target groups. In respect of price and specs, Nokia seems to the clear winner here. Though I am sure, few people will think twice to buy the phone hurriedly because of software glitches which will at least take six months for fixing and releasing a firmware upgrade.
