Need Help Choosing...
I'm about to get a new phone in a month and a half (around mid to late May)...Just need some help deciding.
I'm not really into the whole internet on the phone thing...and I don't plan on spending more money for a data rate plan. So I don't really need something with QWERTY...although I do like the idea of being able to run AIM. But just not worth $20 extra a month to me.
On the otherhand...I'd like for the phone to have:
Bluetooth
MP3 capabilities (including ability to use them as ringtones)
Nice camera (1.5+ MP)
A clamshell design would be nice, but not necessary. Looking to spend ~$300 or so, AFTER signing a new contract. Only looking @ Nokia, Samsung, and Motorola. Not really interested in the rest. GSM is preferable, but I guess CDMA is ok too. My dad also has been with Cingular forever and never got a new phone...so maybe I can pull some leverage if I go with them. Oh yeah...some kind of nifty windows smart phone operating system type thing sounds good too...but again, not necessary.
In anycase, aside from being cliche and getting a Razr...what are some good phones you guys recommend?
Thanx ahead, guys.
