Cool phone! But keep looking! I know that Tmobile just came out with two new phone models, and so did Sprint! So who knows what will be out and affordable by January! But you are so right in looking now and comparing specs. I sell phones in a Sprint/Nextel store, but am still a Tmobile customer because I LOVE my Sidekick 3. Just my humble opinion, but I don't like phones that are also mp3 players. If I play ONE song on my phone, it drains my battery time by two hours! So that is something to consider! If you are using it as an mp3 player and drain your battery, then not only can you not listen to music, but you also can't send and receive calls and texts! I am also a big fan of PDA phones, whether it is a Sidekick, a Treo, a Blackberry, etc (there are so many!) I am so much more organized and on top of things because I can store so much more information on my phone! I have a calendar, upcoming events, to do lists, a notes section, a budget calculator, a weather and radar program, aim, msn, and yahoo messenger, a paint program to edit pictures, a web browser (for YT on the go) and email! I also have all the typical features, like a camera, text messaging, mp3 player, phone and address book, calculator, etc. Just think about what features you really want and don't want, what other things you keep with you (like a paper datebook), and how you want to combine them on your mobile device! There are so many phones that have ALL the bells and whistles, so there is definitely one that will cater to your lifestyle! Hope the advice helps, and you get something that you like and will last you for a few years! Best of luck!
