    I am finally going to give up my Sony Ericsson and go with a Smartphone so I can have internet access on the road.

    I am a T Mobile customer. The reviews of the Samsung Galaxy are all over the place. HTC appears to be T Mobile's premium product, but they want $199 for the upgrade to the 4G product, and they are giving away the 3G product. Confusing.

    I'm doing this on upgrade, and if for no other reason than "because" I am thinking that I want a 4G phone with front facing camera and touch screen. Part of the reason for the touch screen is because they are bigger, and you can increase the font for aging eyes.

    So what do you guys have and how much do you love/hate it?

    Nope! Just punch in the numbers like a "smart" phone. And the technology doesn't go obsolete every six months.....:p

    You forgot to mention that you have to crank it first.
    When the delegates emerged from the Constitutional Convention in 1787, a Mrs. Powel of Philadelphia asked Benjamin Franklin, “Well, Doctor, what have we got?” Franklin replied, “A republic, madam, if you can keep it.”

    I'll be upgrading sometime in the next few months. Will be getting a Droid. I have other things to sell my soul to before I sell it to Apple.
    In most sports, cold-cocking an opposing player repeatedly in the face with a series of gigantic Slovakian uppercuts would get you a multi-game suspension without pay.

    In hockey, it means you have to sit in the penalty box for five minutes.

    Your Bakelite phone is proof of that.

    I'd love to get one of the new phones but I just can't justify the added cost.

    Now that I was forced to retire I can't be a geek anymore...:(:(:D
    May the FORCE be with you!
