Say Hello To My Little Friend

My previous cellphone of choice was the Nokia E71 unlocked. It was a fantastic phone, did everything that I needed it to do, took a beating, held a great charge & took decent enough pictures and video, accessed email and websites superbly. The major downside to the phone was that it was on the AT&T network. Major suckage with a capital SUCK.

So lo and behold I popped into the Verizon store with Michelle tonight - yup we had another get together, and yes I will finish up our first encounter from last week - and noticed the Env3 by LG. It's lightweight, looks cool, is a qwerty which is a must for me & was on sale. I got to try one out from a salesperson there and the phone absolutely flys on the internet, it's got a kick ass browser and the best part is the threaded texts. No more texts coming in one after another, now they're sorted by contact so I can have 3 or 4 text conversations going on and know exactly what's going on in the conversation without having to go back. Saweetness!! Did I mention the visual voicemail? Not really sure what that's all about just yet, but it sounds spectacular doesn't it?

It's not as application rich as the E71 but then again, I didn't use half the apps loaded onto it anyways. It doesn't have MS Office support but that just means I won't be able to do work while I am not in the office. Boo-frikking-hoo. LOL.

Now all I need is to come up with a snazzy name for it/him/her.
