    I'm just curious. My plan is about to end so..yeah!

    I know Android phones are becoming very popular!

    Can you give me the Plus and Minus' of the phone you have?

    I have given up on mobiles, I've been through five this year and always manage to have them stolen, broken, or they just die.

    But from my experience, iPhones are the best, they are the funnest and most versatile phone you can get imho.

    IMHO, your first consideration should be the provider that has a plan that works best for you at the best rate. Most carriers have similar phones, but plans vary and could be a big cost driver for you. After that, you need to decide whether the phone function, text, email, web browsing, etc. are more important to you. Personally, I tracked down a Tmobile G2 because it has the best phone radio I could find, is made for a business climate, and has a physical keyboard that is important to me for the amount of email I work on the phone. Tmobile has unlimited everything for $50.00 per month (after 2G of data your transfer speed will slow down IIRC) which was the best plan for me because I went over the 3000 minutes I used to have (excluding Tmobile to Tmobile) regularly. On the other hand, some people only want minimal minutes but need unlimited text.

    Between OS's, Windows is behind the curve IMHO. I never cared for RIM (Blackberry), but my kids like it. Do your research on Android platforms. Several manufacturers put an "overlay" on top of the real Android such as HTC's Sense and whatever Samsung calls theirs. I don't like the overlay, and that is another reason I chose the G2. Also, some people really want to root their phone, and this is easier to do on some phones than others. If you want an iphone, you restrict yourself to ATT or Verizon or have someone jailbreak it for you.

    Really? I had my LG Rumor for almost 3 years now. Works fine, but I wouldn't mind being able to send pictures once in a while.

    I want to upgrade to Samsung Galaxy S or maybe something newer. Samsung's devices seems to be not bad, though I have always had plain Nokia feature phones;)

    How did we live without them.

    The problem with them you don't just use them when you have to. Now it is a way of life. Your concentration is on it and you don't see what is going on around you. Of course it can be stolen.

    I don't like crowds so when I go to a feast or any where their is a lot of people. I won't use a cell while I am there.

    Stop texting I never text.

    Where their is a crowd you have pick pockets. Here is a tip don't keep anything in a back pocket. Put a rubber band around your wallet it is harder for someone to get it out of your front pocket.

    Got a cell you can buy a holster for it wear it on your ankle like a gun.
