Kevin - 29 Sep 2005 03:37 GMT I am looking to buy a used Cincular GSM phone to replace my nearly worn out T720. Current offerings that I am considering are the V180, V220, and the V551. I could care less about camera and bluetooth features, just need a rugged, reliable phone, as I am a heavy user. Would like to be able to just move my SIM card over and keep running. Which of the three I have listed would be the best pick? Thanks,

I would recommend the v3. Either one will accept the T720's sim card.

The V551 is an excellent high-end phone, with top performance (comparable to the RAZR V3, notwithstanding the other earlier response to your question, as well as other phones.)

And I've explained to you how full of bullshit you are, on many different issues that you've brought up, yet you seem to think that you are de facto the authority on anything you choose to speak on.

What? No "Nonsense!"? At least you don't deny it. You do honestly believe that you are de facto the authority on anything you choose to speak on.

Nokia is a better choice overall.

I had it for a time and gave it to my daughter and she's pleased with it.

Some here will say that it's a low end product but keep in mind that not long ago, it was a top billing product. These thing advance fast now, doesn't mean the older models don't still perform well.

Say what? With all due respect, the V180 has always been an entry-level model.
