| BlackBerry Storm OS 4.7.0.148 Review |
| Posted Thursday, June 04, 2009 11:06:20 AM |
RIM released BlackBerry Storm OS 4.7.0.148 this past Sunday, but I held
off upgrading until I heard if there were any major glitches with it.
Well today I took the plunge and installed it... and so far, two thumbs up.
The OS is much more responsive, and there are several updates that I
really enjoy like:
The New Cursor
I could use the Storm's touch screen pretty good to choose a point on the
screen and insert my text cursor there, however, it wasn't perfect. The
newest update includes a revised cursor/selection tool that when active
lets you scroll the cursor left, right, up, and down just like the
"ball" on other BlackBerrys. |
The New Copy/Paste
This is basically just an extension off of the first thing I love, but
with the new cursor tool also incorporated into the copy/paste method
of the BlackBerry Storm, this function is now even more easy to use and
powerful.
|
The Portrait QWERTY Keyboard
If you didn't notice in the previous two screen shots, this update now
includes a QWERTY keyboard in portrait mode for those two don't wish to
use the SureType or Multi-Tap keyboards. This was definitely a great
addition.
