Phones and such.

[jackofallgeeks]

So, I'm thinking of getting a new phone (my "new every two" cycle is coming
up), and I'm thinking of getting something like this
if Verizon carries it. I've had a flip-phone for years now, but I'm always
afraid of snapping the things (and for good reason, as I've lost at least
two that way). I'm not a fan of slide-phones, and the old-style "candybar"
phones really are what I prefer. What I'd REALLY like is an iPhone, but I'm
unwilling to switch from Verizon (they've treated me well thus far, and
their company policies make me A LOT happier than what I've heard from their
competitors), so that's unlikely to happen for a while. Which is fine, as I
have an iTouch to hold me over until then.

And, while I'm on the subject, does anyone out there with an iPhone or
iTouch have any suggestion for fun/useful/clever apps I should look into?

You may not be able to get an I phone, but the LG Dare comes very close, and is only offered through Verizon.

Lol, my dad has been talking about switching to verizon in december so I spend too much time looking at their phones, contemplating which one to get.

They dont really have any "candy bar" phones, at least none that I noticed.

Yeah, I was actually just in a Verizon store today. Like you, I only need a phone that makes calls, sends texts, and can take a basic picture for memory purposes. VERY few of them out there! And I didn't see a single candy-bar phone. Lots of slides. Lots of whole keyboards. Lots of RAZR-style phones. Good luck!
