Thanks Ron........My needs are simple..........Yes , first the phone must be a phone, easy to use/voice activated.........Friends have blackberrys and many times i will send them an e-mail and i will see that it was read through their cell phones..........

    While that is cool, my main reason would be to use the phone as a mini lap-top.........I know you said that browsing would be slow.........That is ok as i would be interested in knowing a few things........1........Our stock price ...2.....Conversatons on this board...........3.........Google search for information is extremely important........I know that many phones have GPS and this is important as well i am on the road most of the day .........Exteral key board would be a plus as would a larger screen so that i can see...LOL

    In the past i have been an unorganized guy......The calendar function tied into my home PC would be something that would make my life easier.......

    Ron, you gave me alot to think about.......Will report back when i buy a new phone wihch shoud be in a few days.............Have a good weekend........Larry
