Verizonwireless offers the best side-by-side comparison you can find. Go

I believe the Storm's browser is 'better' than the 8830 though I can't find
the tech specifics for you. The viewable screen certainly is nearly twice as
large. The Storm's broswer can also be made to emulate Firefox or IE,
something I'm sure the 8830 does not do.

No, the Storm does not feature wi-fi. But don't let that stop you. This is
an incredibly fast internet access phone with many other great features and
wi-fi cannot be missed much. I keep a wifi capable iTouch at my night table
along with my Storm and rarely do I find the iTouch's internet access
substantially faster that my Storm's 3G. But due to lack of prevailing wifi
spots as I leave my home, the Storm goes with me while the Touch stays
behind in the security of my home's wifi environment.

Get the Storm. With their 30 day unconditional trial period what do you have
to lose?
