TTCheese,

I agree with you in many aspects. I don't get the joy out of a phone as much as I think I should, and honestly, most of the features I don't use. What I do like on my last phone is the ability to sync over bluetooth with iSync, that was probably the best feature I have had on a phone in years.

I do like the ability to check my email on my phone, but I won't pay the extra money for the service to be able to get that feature. I don't do any SMS sending of messages, but I do receive messages (yo, Scott, your server is down) type things.

Scott

I just saw a commercial last night for Bang & Ollufsen's new hard-drive equipped media capable phone, which is designed with a circular iPod-style click-wheel surrounded by a circular numeric keypad and with the camera in the middle.

Sure, it was a touch clunky and I wouldn't fancy carrying it around with me, but it at least proved that what people have been demanding can be achieved - though at B&O's price-point and design lifespan I don't picture it doing well.

I've been holding onto this damn Razr far too long. Currently on replacement Razr # 5. So if Apple does come out with one that I like... I'll be one of the first to order one. My girlfriend looks at me like i'm crazy, lol. But she understands and lets it go. She just wants a phone that doesn't drop calls on her. I want a cool phone that actually functions.

The ability to sync my Razr is great. i wrote an applescript to sync it for me automatically every so often. So thats a must.
