Hey everyone!!
I'm shopping for a new cell phone and am doing lots and lots and lots of research (i'm really anal about my electronics).
I'd love to know what you have and if you love it or if you have any suggestions for me, please!
I'm looking for a phone with a qwerty keypad and can sync up to ical (however, I cannot afford an iPhone). I have T-Mobile and am staying with them (that is not up for debate - 'cause I have a contract w/ them and like them well enough, plus I got a great deal on a plan). The rep @ tmobile said all the phones I'm looking at have syncing capabilities, but she couldn't tell me with certainty that they'd sync with iCal.
I'm currently looking at Blackberry Curve (sunset) (http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/phones/Cell-Phone-Detail.aspx?cell-phone=BlackBerry-Curve-Sunset), Blackberry Pearl (sunset or ruby) (http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/phones/Cell-Phone-Detail.aspx?cell-phone=T-Mobile-BlackBerry-Pearl-8100-Ruby), Samsung Behold (espresso) (http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/phones/Cell-Phone-Detail.aspx?cell-phone=Samsung-Behold-Espresso).
I'm looking at phones that cost between $100-150 (with the rebates they have).
So, what do you think? (i'm open to other T-Moblie phones. . )
Thanks in advance!
PS. I don't need internet access or email access, since my computer is with me most of the time @ work, but iCal sync up is a necessity.
