[Tommygunn]

well i screwed up my phone.. its got alot of water in it so its time for a new one. i want one that i can get on the internet and download movies from websites with. i had the LG Rumor but it sucks..cant download any short videos and looking at websites with it is a pain. looking at the palm treo, is that anygood? i dont really need all that other stuff..i just want a good phone that will last and has pic/video, easy text, and fast internet

any ideas? i have sprint

rednecks don't need phones.

get the blackberry curve man ... that phone is the shit does everything u want it to do

unless u like windows better u can't go wrong with a blackberry

Palm OS is pretty bad. WM 6.1 or Crackberry.

I've got the Samsung Insinct and really like it. It's not the greatest internet device, but it works for what I need. The GPS is badass and the overall functionality of everything is great. I have dropped it multiple times and it hasn't shown any scratches yet.

I don't know that you could take it swimming though. ;)

do you need any kind of special plan for a blackberry?

[DSM Turbos]

Yes, it is about 30 bucks a month for the BB Service.

like what was said above but i think its worth it .... email on the hip internet and u can download googlemaps and get free gps on the device and tons of apps are available .....

its an over all great device with good reception and tons of customizable options u can't go wrong with it

[Tommygunn]

i need to call and talk to them i guess.. right now i have the unlimited pic/video/internet and that cost me like 15bux extra

[DSM Turbos]

you still need a text package if texting is included in that.

that is correct .... almost forgot about that ... $30 bucks is only for email and internet NO TEXT ....

[Tommygunn]

would this be the same for a palm treo?

[LicorShot]

would this be the same for a palm treo?


yes all "smart phones" which are windows based ... palm OS or Blackberry ... are considered smart phones the the data package is atleast 30 at min for personal email use ... and NO text is available unless u are on like a sprint plan that offers it on the plan .... for example the unlimited sprint plan i believe is $99 for unlimited internet and texting plus voice calls for a simple phone like a razor or instinct... but in order to use a "smart phone " u will need to add the data for an extra $30

make sense?

I have a pretty new instinct for sale if you are in the middle of your contract. Has a screen protector installed already too. Let me know.

Negative for Sprint users, I just don't know who his provider is... Simply Everything includes absolutely everything for any smart phone on the Sprint network... I have a Touch Diamond and it uses Windows and I pay $99 a month plus tax and insurance for all the features and nav, tv, radio, etc

unlocked iphone.

my wife and i both have iphones and its the best phone ive ever had....the other companies try to copy it and always fail with a cheap piece of plastic that costs twice as much as an iphone.

[Tommygunn]

i have sprint and i am in the middle of the contract. will a unlocked iphone work with sprint? i dont want to pay anymore then i already am because i dont need the e-mail and all that stuff. i just want to keep my same plan and have the number switched over to a phone that can take pictures/videos, text, and web. which i all have on my plan now unlimited. i like that the smartphones have the big screens and you can watch videos on the web without it saying its to big to see or the file is too large. does the instinct do this?

yes the instinct does ....

and if turbo pig says thats what u pay per month then i guess u do ..... i don't sell sprint so i can't clarify any of that but buy his instinct thats a good deal and NO u can't use an iphone its for only GSM type service and sprint is CDMA.... sorry

I have an iphone and love it. I do not like the carrier (AT&T). Can I unlock it and use it with another carrier? It is not the 3g version. Any suggestions by anyone that may know would be greatly appreciated.
