I've been on the net searching on sites like plemix and myworldphone for about 4 hours now....

This is what I'm looking for:

Under 400 dollars
3G capability (disqualified an LG phone I was looking at :()
Preferably touch screen
Preferably is finger friendly. I don't mind using a stylus, but, I am now used to QWERTY, so, if there is a keyboard, I don't think I want to be restricted to the old texting method of abc = 2 def = 3 and so on...

I'm looking at the LG KS20 but i'm concerned about the talk time honestly. My Blackjack II gets a great talk time and I don't think 3 hours will be sufficient honestly. I'm not picky at all, I just want a phone where I can show off and quickly navigate on the web. And, if it isn't a smartphone, I won't cry (You can save much more money internet wise on non-smartphones with ATT anyways!) I don't care if it's an LG, Samsung, whatever...

Nokia 5800 - 3G

http://www.plemix.com/phone-nokia-5800-phone

I got mine at Nokia store in Hong Kong and paid $500 for it... sux..
But overall is a good phone.. worth looking into.. I do not like Iphone i use to have Iphone 2G but application crashes and phone freeze and all application must go thru itune.

The Nokia you just drop the music in Micro SD and is ready.. i think.. (i just got the phone) so not sure either..but at least that is what salesman told me... *Speak on the phone is exceptional ! real loud and clear!

GPS without sim.. if Wifi (still trying to figure it out)
