So what's in your pocket these days? The latest, the greatest, touch screen / mp3 player / PDA etc...or just something to talk on?

I can't believe I'm still soldiering on with this dinosaur. It seems ancient now

http://i39.tinypic.com/21cfn7l.jpg

About four years old. When I first got it i hacked it to put in my own ringtones / wallpaper, games, etc...but i never use any of them. I'm not a big cell phone whore, but the new ones do seem interesting. Which is why i got this one at the time. I just never used it as anything more then a phone. Surprisingly enough :p

I was just happy it had a VGA camera. Which i never used :/

Anyway I've been without a contract for a couple years but i'm about to commit again because i want new phone. I just don't know what to get. Anyone have a Blackberry? What do you think about it? Do you guys have G3 hooked up? How does it work?

Man i just want something that rings tbh. But if i'm gonna get something may as well be pimp :cool:

So what do 'ya have?

I have a battered version of this:

I am getting an upgrade, thinking of getting this:

Mainly because the camera is amazing and I think I would break a touch-screen phone. Also, Ericssons are awesome. Plus I hate tiny little fiddly qwerty keyboards.

Lol I really liked the design of that phone when I first saw it. Then my friend told me that the phone was designed for chicks...

Then I bought this one and it was by far the best and most efficient phone I've ever used.

have you dropped it or bumped it the wrong way? because so many times ive had it standing up and knocked it over and theres some switch that in the back that as soon as it loses contact it resets everything back to factory settings. so now i have it kept on the basic ringtones and **** because im sick of changing it back all the time

and i get heaps shitty reception with it, although that is most likely a problem with the carrier not the phone. but it takes like 10 minutes for it to let me send a message after ive turned it on

I've had none of those issues with mine, the only thing I can think of thats a bit annoying is when I plug it in to be charged it takes awhile to realise that its been plugged in.

I'll bear what you've said in mind though and try to avoid dropping it etc..

i like how it's touchscreen and has a full keyboard. there's three things i don't like about it the alarm clock, you need a headphone adapter, and how you can't just use the mp3s in your library as ringtones (doesn't really bother me that much, cause i use the regular phone ring, but it would've been nice.)

mp3: ipod 89gb video one. Again I received this from an insurance company after my really old shitty sony one got ruined (in the same accident that killed my phone, and camera/lens) woo
it's 100000000000000000000000000000000x better than the sony mp3 player I had :D

There's no AT&T cell service around here. There's Sprint, but it's only reliable in the eastern part of the state, and US Cellular which is equally crappy here.

Phones are for talking on. I have a pretty generic one and couldn't care less. I could of spent more money and bought an IPhone or some other thing, but I'd rather save me loot for something else.

So this is what I have now...

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v181/dsigns/env01.jpg


Now I can upgrade my phone as per the 2 year upgrade. I was messing around with the Blackberry Storm but the ones in the Verizon store were really sluggish, and there isn't much you can do with it other than spend more money. I would really like an iPhone, but my girlfriend lives in Boston and she is on Verizon too. So I have to stick with Verizon until either she switches to AT&T, or the iPhone moves to Verizon when it's contract is up.

So....Sshould I go with a Samsung Omnia? Or doesn anyone else have any other suggestions?

The samsung seems like it's pretty open too because it uses Windows. I found a program called iFonz that replicates the layout of the iPhone and stuff. But yeah....suggestions? Please?

Mine is just a phone. I hate it. I feel blessed every single time that I break it or lose it and it takes weeks to ****ing get them to insure it. I cherish every second of my life spent without a cellphone


its in no way necessary to have a cell phone so if you 'hate' them so much why do you own one
all you would have to do is write other peoples numbers down and until you lose it it would be up to you to contact them if you want

some really old unflashy nokia, i don't know the exact model or anything. i don't like cell phones because i don't want to be connected all the time. i often don't take it with me and probably wouldn't have one if i hadn't been bought one.

you know i really don't know?

apparently its an "all in one" handy dandy for the pretentious, geeky, and wall street multitasker

its like the itouch but with mobile broadband and a phone included, i'm pretty sure. so its a nice device

but battery life must stink for the thing. i would think. if used as it can be used

i would say its probably best used as those things other then a phone. for people who like to text and talk a little during the day or w/e. but get it for internet / texting / multimedia, music.

I have a razr 2 and it sucks. I've gone through three of them, and the current one came with dirt in the screen.

My old phone was the original razr, and I loved it. Lasted two years, and died an unnecessary death.

It is, but it certainly has its flaws. As of right now, it can't send MMS (picture text messages), nor can it take videos and it's missing a flash from the camera. The battery life is pretty crap, too. I probably charge mine atleast once a day - but then again I use it very frequently.

For business? Not at all. Anytime someone comes into my store and suggests using it as a business device I have to laugh. I mean, as a phone it is good. It has all the features one would need, but it's mainly a personal entertainment device.

TBQH I love mine. It's great for the bus, and some of the applications are actually pretty stellar. Then again, in Canada it's about as good as it gets. We don't have the Google Android system out here yet.

I have a razr 2

I send my condolences.

yeah, and there are plenty of apis avaiable to write applications on them but apple not licensing what it very obviously a class piece of hardware, a good operating system and a cool gui, i just think it is eventually going to go against tham as open source will innovate so much better...........or will it?

I'm not, I honestly don't get why people need such distractions on their phones.

Because some people are incredibly busy or can't get to a computer when something urgent comes up (email from work or something), so it's nice to have access to certain things on your phone. Most people who have these features don't need them, sure, but they're nice / fun to have.
