What Cell Phone? (or smart phone?)

1Strive · Mar 29, 2007

I just got back to the USA from almost 4 years in the UK.

This has given me the chance to get a new Cell Phone. But now everyone has Phones that do e-mail, web, pics, video, streaming media, navigation, and so on.

I have no clue what to get.

I liked my friends "Windows Smart Phone." I had all the stuff I wanted, like watching downloaded shows in MPEG4, DivX and doing e-mail and IM.

However, I don't remember what he had. lol

What do yall think? any suggestions?

I want a phone that I can watch my downloaded TV shows on DivX .avi and does e-mail.

nokia's " N '' series is awesome, N95 would be awesome even though it is little bit pricy

Sony Ericsson K800I 3G it comes in Black or silver.. They sell it at Ncix unlocked, so you just have to put a chip in it.

Not sure if it fits your e-mail/mpeg you should look into the apple I-phone too not sure if its out yet.

i have the bb pearl.....but it's only good if you get the data plans....other wise it's an awesome device because of the potential....but then you have to go tmo or cingular

you could also wait for the iPhone

I have the Blackberry pearl and its awesome.

If you prefer a windows mobile os, the wife has the cingular 8525. I think its a little big, but at 400mhz the thing screems. The touchscreen and slide-out keyboard are neat too.

In my opinion, you should just use a normal cell phone. Doing all that stuff that's meant for giant-screen PC's on a tiny mobile device is, well, awkward. Get a laptop if you plan on IMing on the go
