LG Wireless Phone

Best internet phone for me?

Hello, I need a new phone but not sure whats good these day. Usually i just want my phone to be a phone but i got real nice GPS recently & want to compliment it with an internet phone for when i'm out on long rides on my Ducati. I work with computers all day so It wont be used much, but when I need it I want it to work well. Here is my wish list from most importaint to least... 1) Good & fast internet browsing experience. (3G maybe, i think that is new good stuff right.) I want most websites to render & work well, even though i would mostly use it to look up info when i need it on the go, like googling things most likely. 2) Good keypad, i hate trying to text someone on my cheesy old LG phone. QWERTY probably or at least full keyboard. Touch screen vs buttons is not that importaint as long as it works well. 3) decent phone quality & bluetooth enabled, want to be able to use it with my Garmin Zumo GPS. I don't talk on my phone that much but I use it as my primary phone. 4) I like verizon network, but i just want it to work anywhere, doesnt have to be verizon as long as its works well (I live in Philly) 5) Phone price isnt an issue but wouldnt want to pay over $100 a month for plan, 75 would be better. Anything over 100 would be a waste for me cause i wont use it enough to get my $$$s worth. I was thinking some options would be BlackBerry, Google phone, iPhone, but maybe there are others that would be better suited for me. Not a big apple fan, hate that you can't change the battery in an iPOD, i feel like they design them to become obsolete in 2 years on purpose. Maybe I'm asking for too much, but want as much of those features as possible. Anything comming soon i should wait for? PS - if iPhone was the best option for my needs i would consider it.

1. BLACKBERRY STORM dude it is amazing it is a major contender against the ipod i would get the storm over the Iphone any day :)
2. android g1 for t mobile -has al your features that you listed starting at $180 with 2 year contract flexible plans starting at $39.95 another would be samsung behold its all at the t mobile site
3. I think you should get an iphone. First of all, the internet is amazing on them and in Philadelphia it is all 3g on At&t.(look at this map http://www.wireless.att.com/coverageviewer/). Also the touchscreen is very responsive, the internet shows the full page and has multi touch unlike the blackberry and google phone which makes it very easy to navigate. It is also an ipod which is another plus. The keyboard only stays in portrait mode for texting but can go to landscape for other things like internet. The auto-correction on the iphone is probably the best ive used so it isnt as bad to type on. It looks better than the other phones and the lowest plan starts at about 70 dollars without texting. One more thing, the app store makes it a gaming device also. Overall i think it is a great phone and you should get it.
