Hey guys. Like the title says, I'm a new guy and looking for a new phone. I've only had one cell phone (Sanyo SCP-4700) and after about 4years it's finally crapping out on me. So I'm in the market for a new phone. Here's what I'm looking for and you let me know if something like this exists. I'm sticking with Sprint so any phone that works under their plan. I'm located in Orlando, Florida so this will be primarily be used between Central and South Florida. I'm probably going to extend my contract so any phone where I can get a huge rebate due to the extension would be great. However, I'll most definitely entertain just picking up a phone online, eBay, etc. if it really kicks butt. I need something to really last atleast as long as my Sanyo to make the price worth it if its expensive.
(BTW - anybody have a link to unlocked phones? do they work under any provider).
My main features I'm looking for are speakerphone, color screen, and small to middle size. I'll be keeping this in my backpack most of the time so size isn't really important but I don't want a huge bulge when I carry it in my shorts/jeans. Long battery life. I don't talk on the phone for immense times but I would just like to leave the phone in my bag for days on end w/o recharging if need be. FM radio would be nice. Camera would also be nice but only if the pictures look fairly good. No point in crappy looking pictures where you can't tell anything apart.
MP3s/videos aren't necessary because I've got an ipod. I would like to synch it up w/ my computer and download mp3 ringtones though. I defintely want a "cool" factor. I was thinking Ericsson k750i but I don't know if that'll work under Sprint. I'm open to any suggestions. Sorry this is so long but I just want to get as much detail in as possible. Thanks a lot guys for any help you can pass along. Really appreciate it!
P.S. - Also if you can post/PM some sites w/ reg. cell phone deals. I frequent SD and FW but I don't know if thats where the phone deals reguarly pop up.
edit: Just thought of this. It would be absolutely amazing if whatever found I get has enough memory space (atleast 256mb) and some sort of 3rd party adapter that would allow me to connect it via USB to a computer and use it as a jump drive. I may just be dreaming. But help me out if possible. Thanks!
