I have hit a wall...

So... I am looking to upgrade & I think I am losing my way. This has never happened to me before. I usually see one phone & buy it. But now I am at a standstill! I am trying to find a decent phone with a 2mp camera (or a REALLY good 1.3) & at least 10 mb of storage. I have PLENTY of contenders & price is definately a factor. I dont want to spend more than $250. So here is my conundrum. I cant decide! I have this Post-It on my monitor with a list of some phones to chose from. Some of the phones are:

Nokia N75
Samsung U600
Nokia 6270
Nokia 6282
BB Pearl

Here is a link to my phone history.

So here is what I need help with. Be a sales person. Sell me what phone you thi...

for COR or Customer Service reps

I work for a dealer in PA and we have been told that under no circumstances are we to access a customers account without a driver license and only if the person is the account holder or authorized user. I'm hearing conflicting things about this and wanted some clarification on the subject. Some of our COR stores are following it and some of the CS reps are following it. It's fustrating for the customer so I thought I'd bring it up. I agree with it because it keeps people from abusing other peoples accounts. I just want to be on the same page as everyone else. Thanks.

Need advice one last time.

Do I pick the Nokia 6085 or Moto v3xx. My only concern with the Nokia is sound quality, can anyone tell me if its ok on this model. Last Nokia I had, people claimed I sounded like I was in a tunnel, and there was a slight hiss noise (that was with the push button flip model with T-mobile). Sorry can't remember the model number.

Thanks again for all the help.

SE 580i

I just made the switch to AT&T, and my hubby got me the lg cu515. Well I hate it. Texting is very slow, reception is unreliable, and people have issues hearing me at times as well. So I'm looking to replace it.

So far I've been looking at the Moto v3xx, and the SE 580i. My concern with the 580 is key cracking issues. Many people on this forum give it great reviews and recommend it. But I have also read ALOT of people complaining about the keypad cracking. Does anyone know if this has been fixed? I am a big text person, so the phone has to stand up to that. Any help would be great.

Thanks.

what is your favorite phone ever?

To get away from the sniping and political overtones in some of the threads, I wanted to get back to a basic question. What is your favorite ATT phone that you have ever used?
I must say that the Sony Ericcson Z500a was the best one I've used (not including the Pearl or Curve). I liked the User Interface and the design and the fact it took a beating. The signal strength was great. The fact that it didn't have Bluetooth kinda sucked but for the most part it was a great phone for me.

what at&t? what!?!?!?!?

i guess i'll throw my rant on here, because i simply cannot believe at&t. im shocked right now. 0_0

i started with att in november. i had money, my cedit was rough, so i had to pay 750.00 deposit. i then purchased my iphone (400.00), and then made a 2400.00 payment to my account to pay my contract through the two years.

i dropped my iphone within the first three days, damaging it to where i couldnt put headphones in. so now im at 3550.00, and i have to pay 250.00 additional because the phone isnt covered.

ok. thanks apple.

3800.00

now the replacement phone for apple started to bug out, and the black plastic antenna piece came off, and the metal is slightly separating from the screen. its barley noticable. but falling apart....

Was the iPhone offered to Verizon first??

I heard a Cell One salesman tell this to another customer a week before the Cell One stores re branded to AT&T.

Is this an urban legend or the truth?

I am due for an upgrade in the next couple of weeks and am at a loss on what phone to get, so I am thinking of just getting the razr v3xx in either red or black. Would this be a good choice or should I get sumthing else or wait for sumthing new? Thanks for any advise.

Music phone for 10 year old/Yahoo music service

My 10 year old son wants a phone with an MP3 player. We subscribe to the Yahoo Music service and would like to use that to supply the music.
He will not use the phone for much else, but call clarity is important for me.

He likes the looks of the Samsung 737, but I think the Nokia 6126 makes more sense. Other contenders are the SonyEricson 300 & 580 and Nokia 6555.

upgrading from Nokia 6102i to ??????

I am looking to upgrade from my Nokia 6102i.
Most of all I would like a phone with better call clarity. Voice dialing is next on my list as I frequently call from the car.

It seems that Radio Shack offers the best phones for $50 or less. They suggested the Black Jack II. I am also wondering about the Nokia 6126 & 6555, Razr V3xx and Blackberry Pearl.

An easy to read display, good camera and music would all be good.
I rarely message and wouldn't use "internet" options if costs are involved.

Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.
