If you are NOT a geek then the upgrades in the next cycle aren't going to mean as much as having a good phone now.
As is most 4g phones now and some 3g are going to go to ice cream sandwich by end of year.
Its the difference between always buying a new off the lot car or one that is a year old. The new may be great but the 1 year old will take you to the store also.

Exactly. I like to think of myself as somewhat of a geek, but one who looks more at operating systems that are stable and have been out long enough to research plenty of info on it. A gearhead has to have the latest and greatest and usually has the bank account to do it. If I spend a couple hundred bucks on a smartphone, I want one that I know already has an established reputation, not to mention the most bang for my buck as far as features. Needless to say, whatever phone I do get will not be traded in in a few months. I'll use this phone no less than the two year contract, even if I decided in the end that I didn't like it. I kept my Blackberry for the whole two years, and downgraded at the end of my contract. I figured now, with my job, it's becoming more and more important to have internet access on the go. So hence, the smartphone shopping.
