    Basically a Mogul without the keyboard which is a PITA if you do a lot of documents, e-mails or tests. Nice phone if you like touchscreens though and the other stuff isn't a big deal for you.

    I'm going to take a completely different approach to this. I say get Verizon and find yourself a Moto E815 on Ebay or something. The reason I say this is for the #1 most important thing with a phone, reception. I have traveled alot this summer with other people who have VZW with different phones (Razors, LG8300's), And mine still worked fine when their's were paper weights in rural northern MN.

    Interesting suggestion. If I were to add to it, I would recommend a Moto V710.

    Same great reception, but with the E815 you still get EVDO.

    I wasn't aware of that difference. I suggested the V710 as it was an analog capable flip phone with great reception.

    Razr2? i'm a Motofan but Motorola really blew it with the terrible ringers it comes with, but nothing a little modding can't fix.

    Go with the Mogul.
    Reason's? all the good ones have been posted.

    Good luck with your quest Joe.

    Thanks everybody for the great suggestions! It looks like we have a few leading contenders.

    I'm going to close the suggestion phase of this contest at the end of this Friday 11/2/07.

    Once that part is closed, I'll put up a poll with a handful of the leading contenders.

    To get two entries into this contest, you must
    1. Suggest a phone
    2. Vote in the final poll

    If you don't get a suggestion posted by Friday, you will only be able to get one entry in the contest by voting in the poll.

    One clarification: Don't assume I have any need to stay with Sprint...suggest phones for any tier 1 carrier.

    Thanks for good ones so far! I see nobody wants to try to stick me with a clunker...;)

    I'll suggest what I'm using now, a Palm Treo 680 on At&T Mobility. It has the SIM convenience, for switching to something more stylist (or risk-able) in a moment.

    Last call for part 1 entries to this contest!
    Post your suggestion here for which phone I should buy next. That gets you one entry to this contest. After the end of day today, you can only enter by voting in the poll that will go up next week.

    I know I merely suggested it earlier, but after I've used one for almost a week now I really gotta say that you will love an HTC Tilt from AT&T. Hands down the best PDA phone I've ever used.

    Doesn't look like Sprint will get the z6m so far so I say go for the Mogul or RAZR 2 with Sprint instead...

    I'm going to say the Pantech Duo with AT&T.
    Probably the coolest smartphone ever.

    I'm late. But that's ok.

    Razr 2 FTW!

    Reason: Cause that's the phone I'm getting next year when my contract is up.

    This part of the contest is now closed. (The 2 late entries are OK) :rolleyes:

    I'll put the top suggestions in a poll so we can get to the voting part. Everybody can still enter this contest by voting in the poll.
