Re: Newer cell phones - give me the scoop!
I used to carry my Red Blackberry Pearl in my pocket... Until it took a toilet bath on New Year's Eve day....

Re: Newer cell phones - give me the scoop!
We are updating in a month or two, but haven't decided which phone to buy. We really just need it for talking and texting, not for emailing or any extras. But will not be buying an ILG again.

Well, THAT post was from my phone!!! 
I use Office OneNote quite a bit. I can download and open Word & Excel documents from my email, so that's very convenient. Office Mobile was the main selling point for me, because I like the full keyboard that Blackberry Bold has (among others), I didn't want a slide-out or flip phone, and I don't like the iPhone touch screen keyboard. The Epix has the perks of the Blackberry, but it's smaller, less expensive, and has OM.
It also can double as an mp3 player with a memory card and earplugs.
We have ATT, and I have the unlimited data plan (Jeff does, too--he has an iPhone). I think we have family rollover minutes or something, but Jeff handles all that so I'm not sure on the specifics. My mom has her phone on the same plan as us, and all in all it runs about $215 a month for all three phones, ins., unlimited long distance, and the data plans. (Oh, our internet and land line is bundled into the same pkg.) I think that's pretty reasonable, and it's easy to cut back to the bare bones if our budget demands it.
I like ATT. We've been with them for a long time.
I will be really sad when I have to replace/upgrade this phone. That's how much I like it!!!!

I REALLY liked the Blackberry Bold that I looked at, but it just seemed like such a big, masculine phone!!!!
I have a bad track record with my phones, too, so I didn't want to fork out so much money even though Jeff told me I could--and he made sure to insure the one I finally chose.

I dropped one in a toilet, and lost another one. This time my husband decided we needed the insurance.

Re: Newer cell phones - give me the scoop!
Ha! I can beat that! I have dropped mine in the toilet, dropped one in shower gel, and dropped another in a bowl of water... the last two happened at work!

Right. Wasn't it this morning when I called your phone so we could find it?
