Getting Smart?

I have no idea how old my cell phone is, but it's safe to say several years. Jackie's identical model broke a few months ago so she replaced it with a new but still basic phone.

Mine gets a lot less use, so I don't have to charge it very often, and a week or so ago I noticed that the battery indicator had been at two bars for quite a while. When it finally got down to one bar, I charged it. The next day, two bars again already.

Maybe the battery is on its way out. Maybe I can get another year or two out of the thing. I don't know, but it has me thinking that it could be time for an upgrade. Maybe even to a smart phone. I'm not sure I want the extra costs, but I'm definitely thinking about it.

The thing is, I know absolutely nothing about any of them. Before I listen to sales pitches at the Verizon store, I think I need to hear from people who have them. So I'll ask friends and co-workers what they have, and what they like or don't like. Including Livejournal friends, of course. :)

Any suggestions? Recommendations?

I love my iPhone. At this point, I wouldn't want to use anything else.

A former co-worker had one and absolutely loved it. Something to think about!
