I currently have the new Razr with the MP3 player in it. I have it through verizon, and they said that they would upgrade me to the Krzr if I wanted it. Does anyone know how much thinner it is?

Windows Mobile makes the phone more of a PDA smartphone than anything else. And Windows Mobile w/o touch screen = silly.

I’ve had an XV6700 for awhile and love the thing.

You don’t HAVE to pay for data service just to have a PDA phone right?

Well basically I could get by perfectly fine carrying a cell phone and PDA, but why carry one thing instead of two?

What I want to do is:

-Make phone calls  
-Send the occassional text message  
-Have a digital calendar in my pocket, preferrably that I can sync with my home and work computers  
-Track my spending  
-Have some sort of map program (not GPS navi, just like Microsoft Streets and Trips in my pocket.)  
-Maybe go online once in a while just to play around  
-Carry/view/edit a couple office docs

That’s about it. I’ve played with the idea of getting the smallest most reliable cell phone Verizon offers and a Palm TX. That has its up-sides, but I figured what have 2 things when I only need one.

What I’m not willing to do is pay an extra $50/month to always have internet in my pocket.

there is a pay as you go style data package, $0.015 /kb

there is also a $20 pack i think, for 10 MB of bandwidth

or just dont use it.

sms/mms is on top of that.

the 9900 will use wireless sync for pop 3 /calander/contacts $5/month

not a bad option, its one im looking at myself.
