- The BlackBerry Storm offers you a choice between several different types of keyboards when entering text into the phone. To bring up the keyboard, you can simply swipe upwards from the bottom of the screen. Once the keyboard is displayed, you can switch from one keyboard mode to another by clicking on the BlackBerry "Menu" button and specifying your choice. You can use a full QWERTY keyboard, a multi-tap keyboard or an intuitive keyboard that BlackBerry calls SureType.
- On the BlackBerry Storm, you have the option of using multiple applications to improve your user experience. These apps add extra functionality to your phone and allow you to do many things such as chat with friends and play games. Hold down the "Menu" button for two seconds and a list of recently used applications will appear. This menu allows you to see if any of the apps are running in the background. You can close out any apps that you are not using to save battery life.
- One desirable feature on the BlackBerry Storm is the ability to browse the Internet. The Storm has a built-in Web browser that you can use to see a mobile version of the Internet. Using this browser can help you load pages faster but you might decide that you would rather use a browser more similar to the one on your personal computer. In this case, you can use the Internet Explorer or Firefox browser instead. While in the Storm's browser, tap the "BB" button to change the browser configuration.
- It is easy to send email and text messages with the BlackBerry Storm. If you want to copy and paste something into a message to save time, you can tap before and after the text that you want to copy, then open the menu to select "Copy." Repeat these steps to paste the text into the body of the message. You can also highlight a specific word and search all of your messages for that word. This saves you time when sending messages to others.
