looking for new phone

YourConfused · #1 10-02-2007, 11:04 PM

I am looking for a new cell phone, as the time has come to update my aged one. What do you guys/gals have and what do you think about it? I am using a Sanyo RL-4920. It is 3 yrs old and has been good to me, but it is beat to hell.
I like the look of the Razor, but couldn't use it while blind folded b/c the keys are so flat and my fingers would get lost.

I have the iphone. I surf the network while in class. That about sums it up.

I have the Verizon XV6700. It's a sweet phone, but not for the standard user. I sync with my work email so I get email where ever i am, as soon as it comes in. It has a full slide out keyboard, and a giant screen. If I didn't have that, though, I'd probably go with one of these:

Pretty much anything with a full keyboard. If i'm going to be sending messages, I'm going to do it with a full keyboard.

I have my phone thru alltel, it is the HTC PPC6800, sprint sells it as the mogul.
Great phone but not exactly basic. I had a razr... was OK but not a fan. I have had VERY good luck with LG phones.

I LOVE my Nokia N-gage QD For the $ it's the best smartphone you can get. No camera, but I own 3 digicams. I have a 256mb memory card in it, but it can recognise a 1gb. I can load a full-length movie on my phone & watch it 3-4 times without killing the battery. There's a TON of freeware out there for Nokia's Symbian operating system. Oh yeah & it plays PS1 level games

I have the LG VX9900 (aka the enV). It's a great phone with a full keyboard that can stand up to a beating.

I have the same phone and I love it. Only thing is mine is starting to glitch so I have to reset it.

I have the same phone but the Sprint version. Great phone, but my only gripe is the poor battery life (but that's kind of expected for a PDA phone)

Wow you guys have some expensive phones. I want to know more about Landsharks' phone. It sounds like it comes with the features I am looking for. Do they make them of the sprint network?
So far I have been impressed w/ LG, nokia and sanyo. My old nokia still worked after being run over in the parking lot. The display and keypad were busted, but you could make calls if you remembered what keys went where.
