Russell Beattie put up a collage of all the mobile phones currently available in the US. As of today, Verizon will sell me a new phone at a discount. So which one to pick? I want:
- Camera
- Because I love Flickr. The more megapixels, the better.
- Battery Life
- I want a fuel cell, but that’s not coming for awhile.
- Bluetooth
- And it better play nice with iSync.
Unfortunately, I can’t get Bluetooth because Verizon doesn’t believe in Bluetooth, and wants you to buy clumsy USB cables (that don’t work with the Mac) to synch your phone with your computer.
I could switch carriers, but I’d lose the free calls to Cynthia’s phone, and Verizon’s non-crappy coverage in the Bay Area.
