Its time for me to pick out a new phone for myself and wife..
This time I need one that has

Bluetooth
Email - Need something that will notify me as soon as I get email.
Now doing this will I have to get the data plan? Or could I just use
the mins on my account? I know blackberry does this but does any other
phone they have able to do this? I will be getting work order email to
me thru out the day. First person to answer the email gets the job. so
want to be able to know when I get email so I can answer it fast.



Wife wants on her phone
Bluetooth
MP3

For Wife a Nokia 6256i. It is the best in VZW's warehouse now.
Get/See it a VZW Circuit City kiosk.

For U, Look at any of the "swing to open" phones with a QWERTY key
board.

Any of VZWs current phones can do the email thing without any data plan.

Using the phone's capabilities only you can receive email messages sent to
& #91;10digitnumber]@v
text.com and it will only count against your text message
allowance. Not even your minutes. SMS 160 character limit applies. 250
messages is $5/mo. Without a text message plan each message is 0.10.

Or, you can add mobile web service for about $5.00/mo and use any Hotmail
account (even the free ones) to auto-forward emails or notifications to your
phone. If the email exceeds the SMS 160 character limit you will know to
logon to your Hotmail account using the phone's web browser and read the
entire message.
