The almost 2 year old Sony Ericsson T637 I have is slowing dying. My reception is getting worse and worse which might be Cingular’s fault. It seems like I have to recharge the battery on a daily basis now. My contract is up sometime in October so I’ve started looking at phones.
The Blackberry Pearl which is supposed to be embargoed until Sep. 18th is one option.
The official specs aren’t out yet but it looks like it’ll do what I want. Something with a decent screen that I can check my email, surf the web, be on IM. It’s also skinny, skinny in the width sense. I don’t mind a phone that’s a little bit think depth wise but I’m not a fan of the older Blackberry’s that are wide.
There are also a few interesting HTC phones coming out in the next couple of months as well. I’ll cover those in a separate post.
