I have an LG VX-5400. It is okay but there is one area where we go inhas
VA where I have a lot of problems. My son, who is also on Verizon,
a Blackberry that works great there. I don't want a Blackberry, justa
cell phone, but I don't know which one to get. Any suggestions?
The best RADIOS all have MOTOROLA printed on them. It's why all the
cops use MOTOROLA-brand radios when their lives depend on it.

I highly recommend the Motorola ROKR Z6m here. I've been carrying one
branded Alltel so it isn't all hobbled up like the same exact phone
Verizon sold as the Z6tv hawking their crappy TV service, since 2007 and
it's just a great phone. It has a nice camera that takes great
pictures, stored on its unhobbled up standard microSD card (up to 2MB
only, microSDHC not supported). You can also put MP3 files on the
microSD card and use them as ringtones, different for every user in the
huge contacts database, move files on or off internal memory with the
copy or move commands. There's no need to use internal memory for your
pictures/music/etc., unless you want to use a picture as the background
or screen saver, which you are free to do, even straight off the card.
No special software is needed to move files on/off the motorola's file
structure. Just use any file manager and plug the card into your
computer. The music player in it works great, especially with a
Motorola S9 or S9HD stereo bluetooth headset that fully controls the
phone from the headset buttons.
The radio transceiver in it is typical Motorola quality....very
sensitive, very good in noisy situation on a crowded city system and
seems to work in may places other phones refuse to work in.
It's a nice, tiny phone and the Alltel-branded ones are totally
unhobbled if you can find one. The slide is very rugged and made of
metal, not plastic.
The stereo speakers are in a little slot in the back of the phone made
to turn any flat surface into a sound projector! The slot and bottom of
the phone work against the hard desk surface to create a little sound
"horn" like a PA speaker that makes this phone REALLY LOUD, too! The
ringer rings through both speakers and turns head wide open.
Nice phone, works great. The original battery finally gave up on 24/7
service, so I bought another OEM branded Motorola BT50 from Hong Kong
DELIVERED FREE for only $2.19 off Ebay! I have 3 spares they were so
cheap!

$50 used in nice condition or $90 new on Ebay....
