I have the x1a with modded firmware or whatever you call it to give the 30 fps instead of the 24 fps found on the normal x1a's
and mine is black.

^ I've bought maybe 5-6 phones in the past year so I kinda know the guy... and its pretty easy to spot a fake-azz China POS. Plus, in the almost 2 years I've been shopping on Devon, I have yet to find a fake.

Anyway, the X1a only comes in silver. Might wanna see whats up with yours Jeff. Maybe the seller did a case swap with the X1i.

I double checked. my guy who got it for me got the x1i, I must've heard wrong. It's a great phone but I know he did not get it downtown, I've heard of the knockoff's there as well.
Tried out my phone a couple days ago and it works great, it just sucks on battery life. I cannot even leave the phone on overnight as it dies!!
haha..
Ehh that's what you get though.
I'll post pictures up tonight or something or sometime when I can.

Thanks for looking out bro!

The storm is a world phone (GSM capable) Has sim card slot for that purpose. Under "manage connections" a user may be able to use it on a "verizon" network or GSM and one more that I forgot. There are 3 settings you can choose from the phone.

Storm will work on GSM but 3G will not work. x1i has better video performance than x1a....sony is weird.

^ Yeah but theres a hack to allow for the FPS's on the X1a to match the X1i.

For this type of device, the lack of US 3G is a pretty big handicap IMO.
