Can you check email on your cell phone?

I'm pondering getting a new phone, and shamelessly trolling for recommendations. I'd like one that i can check email on, to further my addiction. ;)

I have friends with Blackberries who like them... i think this Palm Treo looks pretty cool.






Opinions? Recommendations? Ones to avoid?


Thanks! :loveya:

2. Ooh -- that is neat!

Do you use it for the internet? Or just for a basic phone?

14. I use it mostly for a basic phone -
Secondly for a PDA ...

Not much internet. I refuse to pay however much it costs for cellular internet access. CAVEAT = my phone has wifi, so I will access the internets via a hotspot if the need arises. ;)

21. I'm trying to think of a good one for you

but i've run out of sufficiently short synonyms for gorgeous! ;)

You might be stuck with 1-800-GORGEOUS, with no tip-off on your political leanings. :D

15. The hinge on my old Motorola broke
Edited on Tue Jan-08-08 10:38 PM by lizziegrace
I did some research and this model came out pretty good. So far I like it. I've had good luck with LGs and others I know like Samsung.

The camera really nice and being able to text using a QWRTY (sp?) keyboard is great. I do have to keep my reading glasses around as the numbers are very small...

20. That's why I want to get the enV.
It has the full QWERTY keyboard. I hate the chocolate because it has three letters on each number and it gets to be a pain, especially if you're typing a lot of text messages at one time.
