New phone service, what to get?

[squirrel]

I think most of peoples problems with bad service and dropped calls is due to the phones themselves...just like anything, you get what you pay for.
Cheap chitty phones will give you crappy service.

Most of the time I agree with you, except for the fact that I have one of the nicest cell phones t-mobile offers(so they say) a Blackberry and it's SH@T! The service still sucks and the phone is a pain to use.

As for my sprint phone! LG Fusic, Best phone I ever had! Only problem I ever had with this phone is the limited battery life. Even with a Lithium Ion polymer battery, the battery life is 4 hours if your using the mp3 player or the phone continuely. Also make sure you get one with the newest software. I couldn't view picture messages, the mp3 player would cut out, and after charging the phone would shut off. Once I got the new software everything worked perfectly.
