Allright, i trust the knowledge of OOT (sometimes) and need help choosing a cellphone. I'm getting verizon coverage and don't want to spend a whole lot of money-keep it around 100-150 bucks (i am getting 2 year contract here)

here's a linky: Phones

i'm just leery of getting another motorola-my current motorola has broken around 3-4 times in 2 years. It sucks.

i hate verizon phones.. part of the reason i went to cingular instead of verizon when i was offered positions. a small part, but a part=) so i will refrain from offering my opinion. but once you've narrowed it down a bit, www.phonescoop.com is a good place to get the lowdown and such. ya heard.

The Motos all seem to have problems charging I have a V710 and its a pain in the ass.

my current motorola does too. i really don't like motorolas, but this phone looks promising. I'll probably be persuaded instore today. Or i'll ask to demo both for 2-3 days.

It has the same charger interface as the V710, I would expect it to have the exact same issues.
