Cellular Phone Forum / General / GSM / December 2004Please help me locate a new cell phones
I'm currently a Verizon customer in Southern CA. I own the Kyocera 7135. It's a great phone, but overkill for my use and too large for my taste. I would like to replace it with a phone from either Verizon or Tmobile. I'm looking for your suggestions. My requirments are in no particular order: Small, like V300 size. Sturdy. I'm a very active person and I need a phone that can take a bump or two every now and then. I like a solid feeling phone as well. Battery life: Best possible. Sound quality: Loud. Bluetooth FLIP: This is a must. I love the clamshell. Relialbe: I think that's a given  Signature"Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy.

I'm fairly happy with Verizon, but I HATE to have to go into their stores. Rude, lack knowlege and poor customer service. Tmobile is the opposite in that regard for me. I once owne both a Tmo and Verizon phone at the same time. Both phones had good reception everywhere I went. I will NOT return to ATT EVER unless they bend over and kiss my back side. I was a customer of theirs for many years with many phones on one account. When I went to make a change on the account, after many years, they told me they showed I owed them some money form like seven years prior and three cell companies ago. When I explained to them that this was NOT possible they didn't care and gave me the run around. I'm fuzzy on the details, but in the end I was proven right when they removed the overdue account from my name after a few months. Too late for them, I'd already switched. I also found that ATT never had a great selection of phones. All of this may be mute as I did a search on phonescoop phone finder and few of the phones met my needs.

From what I have found in the US (I visit there regularly from Australia), not any one supplier has a great selection of phones compared to the rest of the world, unfortunately. >All of this may be mute as I did a search on phonescoop phone finder >and few of the phones met my needs.

Cingular now owns the AT&T Wireless name, so you wouldn't be dealing with AT&T. --- CellPhonesEtc at optonline dot net >> Well, t-mobile is GSM, Verizon is CDMA.

I just couldn't allow them to treat me like crap though. Signature"Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy.
