Smart Phone Help

[skinsguy]

I'm glad someone posted this thread. My cellphone ended a few weeks ago, and I've been thinking about the next phone I get. I just had a little Pantech Jest...something that didn't require data service. I'm kicking myself for going with that phone after I got rid of my Blackberry, because I had no idea Verizon was going to limit the data service. If I had known that in advanced, I would have kept my data (probably gotten rid of the blackberry thought.)

Anyways, I'm eyeing the Droid Razr Maxx. It's supposed to have one of the best smartphones in regards to battery life and features, but it is a bit pricey for me. I'm glad someone mentioned Amazonwireless, I can save a few bucks off of the phone from there, although I WISHED I was a new customer as those guys are getting a big savings off of the phone. Anyways, anybody else have the Maxx?

You are in the same boat as myself a few months back. I say give the Bionic a whirl. It is cheaper up front just as fast as the Razor and you can remove the battery to reboot it. Also as a man it fit better in my pocket then the Razor.

I forgot to add that at the last minute i didnt go with Amazon. They didnt offer my old school text plan so i called verizon to ask if i upgrade with amazon can i change back to my old text plan right aferwards. They said why dont i upgrade with them, and i said because its 50 dollars cheaper on amazon.

They said we will give you 25 off, i said why not 50? They said its easy to give 25 off upgrades, but managers have to approve anything more than that.

Basically anyone who upgrades should get at a minium 25 off the "sticker" price.
