Which phone should I buy?

    I can't really put it off any longer, my old phone is literally falling apart heh.

    Looking to upgrade to a contract phone, ideally with plenty of free texts and unlimited internet browsing.

    Everyone says to get the iPhone, and while I will admit it's a great little phone, it's a bit too big for my liking. Something small to fit into my pocket :)

    I know you are against the iPhone, but I just bought one yesterday at the local AT&T store and I would say there is no better phone. The phone will be good for a very long time because of their constant software updates. A co-worker of mine just got the Pre and both she and I agree that it just isn't as good of a phone as the iPhone. The massive 3rd party support for the iPhone makes it awesome. There aren't to many nice smartphones that are much smaller than the iPhone. I know you said you didn't like it, but I really would say reconsider.

    Get a *vintage* A100. Back when small actually meant small. :)

    5ky use the [ img]link to image[/ img] tags :)

    And that's the trouble, the iPhone is easily the best phone on the market. It's just so bulky :(

    I know your not sure on it, but I would say iphone. Its not actually that big when its in your pocket (or maybe I just have big pockets!) and is by far the best for internet browsing and everything else.

    I could never have a phone as small as the pictured A100. Id only swallow it by accident.

    I will sell you any of my old phones I've had in the past for $500 each (you pay shipping).

    You can pick from a RAZR, a 1st generation iPhone that was dropped in a pool, Some old Sanyo phone that was cool like 7 years ago or a Blackberry Pearl.

    The Blackberry is the best line of phones. Go for the Storm or Bold.
