Try a Palm Treo. Couple friends have them and they are pretty pleased.

 

was lookin into them...all cingular has is the 650 maybe they'll come out with something better and ssoon

 

dont get the ustarcomm pp6600 series. i hated it

 

im lookin towards nokia or something
dont want a windows smartphone they dont mix with mac computers

 

^some can sync up,not fully though.. google around.

 

I have a treo 700w i love it and yeah i had the 650 its pretty much crap wait for cingular to catch up and get the 700 when they finally get their high speed data network up and working right

 

how much are you looking to spend?

 

Here's a review of the E62 by Nokia:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14456766/

"The e62 was created for the user who is always on the run — for the person who needs first class access to their e-mail, appointments and documents in a portable device of manageable size.

As for size, the e62 is a little larger that Verizon/Motorola’s Q phone but a lot smaller, thinner and lighter than any Palm Treo. And forget about comparisons with most other smartphones. The Nokia is smaller (4.61 by 2.76 by 0.63 inches) and lighter (5 ounces).

The e62 is a quad band, GSM/GPRS/EDGE world phone which utilizes the 850/900/1800/1900 MHz bands. It comes with a big, hi-res color screen (320 by 240 pixels) and a full QWERTY keyboard on the front. It also has a dedicated e-mail button and flashing message light.

Nokia says talk time is between 4 to 5.5 hours with a stand-by time of up to 14 days. As for connections, there’s the now ubiquitous Bluetooth 1.2 and a USB port. Internal memory runs 90 MB plus there’s a miniSD card slot for as much as 2GB of expansion.

The e62 deals with multimedia files by utilizing Real Video, MPEG4, 3GPP formats for video and MP3, Real Audio and MPEG-4 (ACC) for audio. Saved MP3 files can double as ring tones. A suite of office programs should be able to handle any documents you thrown at this device."


I have an E61, and it's GREAT. However, neither of these models have a camera...

 

i really like that....may just have to forget a camera

 

just curious, was it the 8125 that ____ed you off to destroy it or another reason? no need for details i have the 8125, i'm slowly getting sick of it...

 

haha ok, its not the phones fault. but like you i was slowly getting sick of it.

 

is the motorola Q really worth it? im thinking of just saving up for it since im still under contract and need to pay full retail price for it. which is 450

 

i dont know if its worth it or not. but i wouldnt buy from verizon if i were you. ebay it or something if you cant renew a contract. go to any search engine and look for reviews of the phone also howardforums.com is a good place to look at cell phone stuff. the biggest thing bout smartphones...do you really use all its features or just want it cause it looks cool?...im guilty of getting a phone for the cool stuff rather than the practical reasons

 

well ive got verizon =/

 

if you get the Q then dont get it from verizon. buy from ebay or something

 

*** it i might as well stay with the razr then. i need a new phone anyway...just dont wanna pay 300 for a new one when i can get a 50 dollar razr from insurance

 

I am looking for a "smart phone" as well. I use cingular and was looking at the blackberry 8700 or maybe the nokia e62. the only bad thing is they don't come iwth cameras but thats nto that big of a deal. I need somethign I can get on the internet with and check my email from.

anyone have any pros or cons on either phone?
