View Full Version : O HAI. I HAS CELL PHONE QUESTION.

So, I'm investigating getting a new cell phone and I want some opinions on my leading contenders. (Prices I'm quoting are after rebates and such.)
1. The Samsung Blackjack. It does everything I'm looking for and I can get it for $75.
2. The Palm Treo 750. Also does everything I want, but costs me $200.
3. The BlackBerry 8800. No camera, otherwise has everything I want. Cost to me is $300.
4. AT&T 8525. Looks pretty sweet, cost to me is $350.
So I guess what I'm wondering is which of these is worth the price increase over the Blackjack, and which of these suck at that price?

Treo 750 for $200 seems like a steal. I like my 650, despite it being my third one this year. :eek:

The Treo is the one I'm leaning toward. I was just looking to see if anyone has any "that model sucks and breaks all the time" stories.

None like that, but I have a Blackberry Pearl and am very happy with it.

The 650 sucks and broke on me.
I can't figure my iPaq out half the time.

Treo 750W.
I'm on my 3rd Blackjack in 3 months. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone at any price.

Not to threadjack...
Ok, I am blatantly threadjacking here. I can get my wife and I Motorola Q's for $80 each. Should I get them?

And so begins GHP's spending of his new found wealth.

Have you checked Wirefly.com for any deals that they might have? I upgraded to a razor v3 quite a while ago for like $18 . . . it might be worth a look to see what deals are available.

Yes. I wish Cingular had the Q's available...

Treo 750W.
what's the W?
i need to choose between a Treo 750 and a AT&T 8525, i think

The W runs Windows Mobile, or whatever. The non-W runs Palm OS.
At $150 difference, the choice seems easy. Me, I like the Blackberry's and I never use the camera on phones after the first week anyhow.

For $200, it seems like the Treo will be the best deal. I may not get one right away, though. If I get one right now I'd have to put the phone itself on a credit card. I can wait a month or two.
