Thanks for the tips, Chris - it definitely will help me with my decision.

You should have seen me 4 years ago when I selected my last phone. It was the Motorola e815 or the Motorola Razr (first generation). I did tons (perhaps too much) reading up between the two phones, and went with the older e815. Best choice I've made on a gadget yet.

So yeah, point is I took forever between two extremely similar phones. You can imagine this decision is a bit tough for me. Any additional info like that you and ardichoke and the rest have offered has been awesome.

I guess it's down to Android and the iPhone now. iPhone has a great "one size fits all" simplicity (the barrage of upcoming Android phones is exciting but leaving me feeling a bit overhwelmed), but the apps for Android really intrigue me. That's the bottom line.
