Ok here is the deal, I need a Smartphone where I can look at the net and see it as it really is. I have a Palm Treo 680, that I love because of the keyboard and the chat-style view for messaging, but looking at the net is a mess. I also love how email is displayed and I hate to give that up, but I work on the net and I have to see it!!! I don’t like Blackberrys (for many reasons).
I am with AT&T Wireless, but my contract has ended so I may be influenced to leave. Convince me please!
I have read everything about the the 3G iPhone, but there are many negative reviews. Same with the HTC Fuze. I have read about the Nokia’s and the G1. So many choices and I have no clue. I have read so much I know all the pros and cons, according to the net, but I need more info from actual users. I want the truth about things.
I like a full keyboard for messaging and emails and I have read that it is hard to text with the iPhone. I need to be able to open PDFs and I have several email accounts. I need the phone to be easy to use – fast and simple. I like the idea of the HTC but have read it is hard to get to the phone. I need advice from all you smart people. I know many like what they have or hate what they have. Please let me know what you think.
Which do I choose or do I wait for something new coming out?
The gift card will go to whoever is the most convincing- this could be convincing me to buy a certain phone or not buy a certain phone. I may not take your advice, but who cares. I don’t care how long your comment is, just please comment and help me make a choice or rule a phone out. I will make a decision by next Friday night – 1-9-08 - and let the winner know Saturday morning.
I know $50 isn’t much, but the economy is bad
If comments are too long and you want to email me I will add your text to this post [Be sure to include your name, email (not to be published) and link to your site]. I think a large groups of pros and cons of the various phones could be very beneficial for buyers.
Some Info:
I will mail the card to the winner on Saturday, January 10.

i dont know about the one phone…but i do know that with the iphone it is extreamely hard to txt and use the internet unless u have the page streached huge…and then u cant see the rest of the page anyways but i just got the blitz and it is fantastic…and it is so unbeliavably easy to txt with
Personally, T-Mobile has been a GREAT company since I joined them 4 years ago. Customer service is outstanding and they help you with everything you need. Since you need texting, T-Mobile has great phone plans that can include unlimited texting for a low price. The family plan has worked wonders considering the amount of texts we all send and the minutes we share. Also you can you can purchase mobile-to-mobile so that every time you call you a family member it doesn’t deduct minutes.
As for choosing a phone, I was suggest the Samsung Behold for T-Mobile. It’s almost exactly like an iPhone to be honest, but for a much lower price and much better camera at 5mp (especially if you get a new plan). If you purchase the phone they throw in a 1GB memory card to store music, pics, etc on your phone.
Hope this helps.
I NEED A PHONE THAT I CAN USE COMFORTABLY WITH ONE HAND , AS I HAVE AN AMPUTATED LEFT ARM. THEY ALL LOOK GOOD ??????
When I walk through the mall and all those kiosk phone-sellers approach me, I wave them off with my iPhone. It doesn’t take a word. This look of “Oh, never mind” engulfs the salesperson’s entire body like air leaking out of an inflatable pool toy.
Seriously, AT&T’s iPhone is a FANTASTIC communication device. My husband bought mine as a birthday gift last spring. I was spending a lot of time in the hospital with my Mom and it was a lifeline to family with photos (quality is OUTSTANDING), email (RAPID), internet (I had to do SOMETHING while watching Mom sleep), and the magic of touchscreen and touchscreen keyboard/pad.
Sound quality is great, the Apps store is fun (with tons of free apps: I have flashcards for Spanish, fine art repros, games, etc.), and people are always curious and want to ‘touch it’. (I’ve never been a pregnant woman, but I think it might be similar to the ‘baby pat’ thing that perfect strangers do to extended bellies?)
My husband isn’t the techie that I am, so he has some sort of Motorola or something phone, but the good thing is, his service only costs $9.99 a month when bundled with mine.
Besides, who doesn’t love SLEEK! There are no annoying moving parts or tiny keys to have to dust.
Good luck. Hope you find the device of your dreams!
Right now you could get a good deal on just about anything because stores are practically giving things away, so now’s the time to buy one, if you are going to get one.
I would suggest getting one that has the ability to do all the things you may want it to do, even if you dont want to pay for all the features now. You may want email and gps down the road, so pick one that can do both of those.
I dont have one myself, but i’m sure you will choose well
I would love to win this phone as I often have to multi-task and this would be very helpful.
I say leave AT&T and head on over to Verizon and get the Storm. The iPhone should be the last option because as soon as you get it, they will come out with a better iPhone and you’ll be kickin’ yourself! Good luck with finding a new phone!
Is this getting boring? iPhone. I don’t care if the repeat of the recommendation disqualifies me. I *loathe* Apple. But this is a gorgeous beast. If you can afford it, go for it.
My son works with AT&T does that dq me? Even if it does, he does not recommend the iphone simply because it is not insurable. He recommended the Blackberry Bold but of course you are prejudice against Blackberry. He also advises against the Fuze just too hard to get around the applications.
i like the BlackBerry Bold myself
Very good information.
Thanks
Stick with At &t & iphone here’s the latest news:

I’ve had the Tmobile Android G1 and I don’t know how I’ve lived without it. It truly I is a mini laptop. I do my banking can save all my passwords for every site I visit and have a ball. You can even zoom in & out of the screens. Some the post comments have helped me keep up the good work Good Luck G1 strong.
The performance of the i-phone is outstanding. Go for it!
HTC fuze, three of my friends have them and they are so much fun and so easy to text on!
i would recommend the the t mobile sidekick LX. i am a kid myself and i would love to have this phone its like every kids dream phone that they want.
iphone
you can add awsome apps!!
Iphone. It is stable the apps are awesome and easy to use.
I recommend the Palm Treo 755p. It is very user friendly! I have tried the Palm w/windows, and getting to the different screens took many more clicks than with the Palm and that drove me nuts. I’m also with Sprint and I have a sweet plan. Good luck!
