Are you into touch screens?  If so, the LG enV Touch is very cool.  It has many of the same features as the enV 3 and more.  The other phone is cheaper and not everyone likes touch screens so that's why I went with it.

You just sold me. I am getting my upgrade soon. this sounds like just what i need. hI jAMES Posted at 1:49 pm on July 1, 2009 LG enV®3 I'm going to have to choose this phone for you. It's a really neat phone. I don't personally have one but a friend does. The music sounds pretty good on this phone which many phones lack. The camera takes pretty decent pictures at 3.0 megapixels. One of the coolest features is the screen adjusts to whatever light you are in. So outside or inside, the picture is great. I know for sure I would benefit from this feature. Maybe you will too. It flips open and the QWERTY keyboard is there. That's great for texting and Internet.  I'm always typing something, one way or another, so it helps. Lastly, it has removable memory feature which is always a plus. This phone supports up to 16GB (microSD) Here are the specs: Design * Large 2.6″ Internal Screen * Full, Compact QWERTY Keyboard for Fast Messaging * Dedicated Text Messaging key via Internal Keyboard * Large widely spaced external keys for easy dialing Advanced Messaging Features * QWERTY Shortcut for text * Auto-Complete Feature for Text, Picture & Video Messaging * Text Instant Reply Feature Camera/Camcorder * 3.0 Megapixel Camera & Camcorder with Flash * Video Capture and Playback * Self Timer: Off, 3, 5 or 10 seconds * Color Effects: Normal, Negative, Aqua, Sepia, Black & White * Multi-shot Mode: - Smile Shot: Automatically takes a picture when a smile is detected - Panorama: Automatically takes 3 pictures in sequence as you move from left to right - Intelligent Shot for Improved Image Quality - Dual Display: Activate the external display for self portraits * Camera Resolutions: 2048x1536 (default), 1600x1200 (default), 1280x960, 640x480, 320x240 Pixels * Customizable Brightness, White Balance, Shutter Sound, Color Effects, Shot Mode, Self Timer * Shutter Selection Music * Music Player for MP3, WMA, Unprotected AAC & AAC+ * Sync Music from PC to Phone & Create and Manage Playlists * Up to 16GB microSD™ Optional Removable Memory Bluetooth® * Supported Profiles: Headset, Hands-free, Dial-up Networking, Stereo, Phone Book Access, Basic Printing, Object Push, File Transfer, Basic Imaging, Human Interface Device Services * HTML Web Browsing Capable * V CAST Music with Rhapsody® (Subscription, Wireless and PC downloads) * V CAST Videos * Chaperone® Parent/Child * Media Center - Download Games, Ringtones and More * Dashboard with Mobile Web * Mobile Email, Mobile Web Mail, Corporate Email, Mobile IM and Chat capable * Text, Picture, Video, Voice Messaging with Threaded Messaging Feature * VZ Navigatorsm Capable * Visual Voice Mail * Voice Mail Capable * Device Software Update: Download firmware updates over the air * Nationwide Premium Plan Capable * Mobile Broadband Connect Capable General * Bilingual Interface: English/Español * Airplane Mode * Personal Organizer: Calendar with Scheduler, Note Pad * Tools: Alarm Clock, World Clock, Calculator, StopWatch * Voice Commands * Speakerphone * Embedded Ring Tones, Vibrating Alert & Silent * 2.5mm Headset Jack * Phone Book with 1,000 Contacts * In Case of Emergency Contacts * Total Equipment Coverage is Available * TTY/TDD Support * GPS Enabled/E911 Specifications * Frequency: 1.9 GHz CDMA PCS, 800 MHz CDMA * Data Transmission: High-Speed EV-DO * Dimensions: 4.11" (H) x 2.13" (W) x 0.65" (D) * Weight: 3.77 oz. * Hearing Aid Compatibility = M4 * SAR: Head - 1.34 W/kg, Body - 1.07 W/kg * Internal LCD: 260K Color TFT, 320x240 Pixels, 2.60″ * External LCD: 65K Color TFT, 160x96 Pixels, 1.56″ * Usage Time: Up to 327 Minutes OR * Standby Time: Up to 460 Hours That sounds pretty awesome to me.

Which data plan? The expensive a$$ data plans. Email and Web for Blackberries are $29.99/month and Blackberry Solution Ulimited Data Plan is $44.99 a month White Fate Posted at 8:52 pm on June 30, 2009 Quote: from RedNoir at 10:39 pm on June 30, 2009 I would get the EnV 3 or EnV touch because they are brand new... as hott as blackberries are, if I would get one I wouldn't get one for verizon because they make you have the damn data plan... yeah...

Stormblazer Posted at 4:29 pm on June 30, 2009 Pretty sure the voyager is in the same category as a blackberry though, if not higher. I'm not terribly familiar with Verizon phones, I can't stand their cell packages. They're almost as overpriced as AT&T but without the benefits, do they even have an unlimited data plan yet? White Fate Posted at 8:58 am on June 30, 2009 The EnV phones are sturdy and hard to break. drifting Posted at 9:28 pm on June 27, 2009 Quote: from Bend Your Wings at 7:43 pm on June 27, 2009 the dare is an awesome phone. QFT The Versa is a pretty amazing phone also. I have one (got it refurbished, so I dont have the keyboard) and the interface is amazing on it. Better than the Dare, IMO. The picture quality is pretty good, its feature rich (full web browser with tabs, photo editing, paint-like program, ability to add "blog accounts" for easy uploading of photos, etc) SoaringFalcon2010 Posted at 4:44 pm on June 27, 2009 I have a Juke. I love it most deff a tough phone haha the env2 have button outtages after awhile so I wouldnt go with that and the voygers touch screen go's out alli wonderland Posted at 4:43 pm on June 27, 2009 the dare is an awesome phone. woodsy93 Posted at 4:42 pm on June 27, 2009 I have an Env 2, pretty good phone. zamrambo Posted at 4:42 pm on June 27, 2009 I have the EnV2 and it's a good phone.  Very sturdy. kindredragon Posted at 4:40 pm on June 27, 2009 blackberry has a new flip phone that looks cool...i know u said no blackberry AndreasMommy Posted at 4:40 pm on June 27, 2009 I have the voyager and I hate it.
