Verizon phone

[JunkyII]

It doesn't suck.  Do you hate the clickable (pushable) screen????  And why does a kid have a blackberry 

The rumors out before the Storm hit the shelves was that it wasn't fast enough compared to the iPhone.  They were so wrong.  It is supper fast.

Because thats what its all about these days, whos  got the best phone

Most people at our school would laugh at a kid with a Blackberry. But, hey, it's ZooZoo.

Exactly.   Thank God I was more interested in the females when I was in school.

I myself have a windows mobile phone with keyboard and touch screen.  The AT&T tilt is what I have and love it especially the Windows Mobile.

You can find almost any program on the internet that is free.

Well I looked on the Verizon site and see that Verizon now has HTC phones.  These I would highly recommend.  They come with Windows mobile and in my opinion very good phones.  They are the company that made the Tilt.  These are basically mini computers and the palm of your hands.

Here is what I found:

There are others that have Windows Mobile but none have the Qwerty keyboard.

I have an Curve 8350i and use Opera Mini as the browser.   It is all I need and enjoy it.   The Iphones are nice, but I've heard too many complaints from friends that "hate the coverage".   I enjoy the Nextel network, as they has more towers in Michigan than any other competitor.   I didn't have a problem in California, nor any other state I've been too.   I have mp3's on it and use the headphones from time to time.   

Sometimes some get so blinded by "bells and whistles" that they don't realize it's "more sh*t to get broken".    Buy a phone for function, the last phone I had was a 3 year old i560 that was Mil-Spec.   It was flung about while wheeling, run over a few times on the trail inadvertently, dropped from roofs, thrown by my son about 40ft (I was more impressed that a 5 year old could throw it that far) and many other things.   But it always worked, although like most Motorola phones from that time, they had battery issues.   

Spikes, what works for us, might not work for you.   Folks that slam "any phone" need to seek Professional Help, because if you're that "uptight" over what someone else has, you need to wonder what you're doing with your own life.   My guess is not much.   Just see what fits your needs, it's as simple as that.

When I tell people how much my cell phone bill is monthly, they get pissed.        I don't use mine for business either.

I like the LG phones, they all are pretty tough if you beat up your fun and all come with cameras and stuff like that for pretty fair prices. Voyager is nice acouple of my buddies had it and loved them

I've always wondered about LG. Twenty years ago, their company name was "Goldstar" and they manufactured steaming buckets of crap.

True.   But, I've have a 19" LCD monitor from them for almost 2 years and it hasn't lost a single pixel yet.

The BlackBerry Storm2 is coming out soon.  I personally have been VERY impressed with the Storm & I will most likely upgrade to the Storm2.

The storm (Storm2) is the way to go my friend.

Agreed, had my Storm for a few weeks and absolutely love it.

Spikes, when asking for opinions about cell phones, you need to preface it with the following.

"Yes, I am asking about the opinion of cell phones.  If you have an iPhone, or any phone with some kind of fruit on it, please do not comment.  I know everything else is crap compared to your fruit phone and to even think about getting something else is simply stupid, so we can dispense with your invaluable insight into the quality of cell phones.  I am going to gamble on remaining ignorant on how no one can live without a fruity phone and would appreciate it if you allowed me to remain in that state.  Thank you and move along."

I have your basic phone as well.  It's just a phone.  It allows me to easily communicate with others, including those with fruity phones.  Oh, it also never butt dials anyone.  I like that.  And for $20, if I lose it or break it, I am not going to have a stroke over it.

I also enjoy the fact I only have to recharge it once every two to three of weeks.  So it is also good for the environment.

I think it is difficult to go wrong if you keep it simple.

The one and only reason I have a cellular phone is so my 87 year old father can have one for emergencies.

I have a contract with AT&T for two phones with two separate numbers.  That is it...just two phones.

Rollover minutes....standard 400 per month.  Between my father and I we use maybe 5 of them.

If my father wasn't his age I would not own a cellular phone.

We seemed to have survived nicely before them.....when my father no longer has the cellular I will not need one.

It will go wherever nice little cell phones go after their usefull lives.
