I've browse the threads and have read similar topics, but I'm still cluess as to which phone to get... there's just one to many. 👀

Here's my guideline: 1) As cheap as possible-under $100. 2) must have VZ Navigation and/or blue-tooth 3) Most bang for the buck.

I'm thinking the Razr v3m, price and size wise, but have read unfavorable reviews about it (or was it the v3c?). I'm also considering the LG 8300 based on good reviews, but dislike the external antenna. I've also looked at the Samsung a930.

Should I wait for something new that may come out in a week or so that may create some special deals on these or the new phones?

Thanks for the info. It helps a lot. I'll wait a week or so after 4th of July to see what else comes out, and I'll go to the store for a bit more hands on testing to see which fits me best.
