My suggestion would be to test out the devices in the store to see how you actually like the phone. I'm a pretty picky cellphone person and if the device feels too bulky and/or cheap, that's out.</div><div><br></div><div>Next, mark down which phone you like from the physical test and read up on the reviews. The reviews (whether its from verizon.com customer reviews or CNET tech review) been pretty good and accurate online. CNET gives out excellent, detailed reviews.</div><div><br></div><div>Good luck! Not sure how urgent you'll need a phone but you can also ask the sales rep. at the store when the next batch of new
phones will be in. I tend to like HTC's Android phone. The new Sprint EVO 4G (Droid on a HTC) phone seems really slick and a close contender to the iPhone - unless of course, you had a problem with the phone and not the service. I have yet to find someone who actually dislike the phone more than the service provider.</div><div><br></div><div>FYI, iPhone coming to Verizon - the latest rumor is Jan. 2011. But I been hoping for it for 2 yrs. already. I won't bet money on it.</div><div style="font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt"><br><div style="font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt"><font size="2" face="Tahoma"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b> Matt Campbell <dvdmatt@gmail.com><br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> SGVLUG Discussion List. <sgvlug@sgvlug.net><br><b><span style="font-weight:
