There is no need for verizon "tweeks". It just might be these "tweeks" which doomed the Storm, and not to mention a handful more of verizon branded RIM's BB's which magically no longer have app's and functions that other BB's do.

Also, RIM does handle the software and hardware. VZW then tests and tweeks it. Verizon had 4.5 for the Pearl and Curve out before Sprint, AT&T, TMO…the bigger selling phones.

It’s been out for the Sprint BlackBerry 8830 for over a month." Give them a break? It takes time for verizon to sanitize and verizonize firmware, all those un-allowed applications and functions need to be crippled and removed aka verizoned. This is yet just another example of why RIM should handle it's own hardware and software and not allow the service providers to be involved. “We aren’t quite sure why it took so long for Verizon to release 4.5 for their branded version of the 8830.
