I will be buying a 3G phone next month (that is when I am elgible for an upgrade, from my Razr). I was going to buy an iPhone, but I will not accept AT&T's rate plan, slow EDGE speeds and the disconnect fee, nor the proprietary battery situation. Instead, I will be buying a Samsung BlackJack. It has 3G, will do TV, video and all that, AND it is a PDA, AND it comes with a spare battery & charger, AND I can get all-you-can-eat 3G access for $40/month. I am paying $20/month now, for slow internet speed on my Razr. And I am told that they don't care if you tether the BlackJack to a notebook. If the web browsing is lame on the BlackJack(?), I can always tether my IT, but if it is great, then my IT will probably go to eBay.

Whoops -- did I say that out loud?
