After months of waiting for phone hardware for the various carriers to arrive for the holidays, and for our two-year Verizon contract to expire, we went to AT&T yesterday. We need data now for our phones, and though Verizon did come out with some good PDA phones finally, the data charges are just too high. We would have paid $90 / month for full data packages alone on two phones. I hope we don't regret the move; one of the reasons we went this weekend is because I'll be traveling and can test the AT&T network coverage where I tend to land during the AT&T 30-day return period.
A nice fringe benefit of going to AT&T is the Tilt, aka the HTC (manufacturer) "Kaiser". Calling this thing a phone is a vast understatement. It's a notebook computer shrunk to something you can fit on your hip, to my knowledge the most powerful "phone" in the US. It's got a big keyboard, display, Office Mobile, GPS with voice directions, WiFi (all bands), about 10 different kinds of network compatibility, stereo Bluetooth, etc. etc. It's going to take several weeks to figure everything out!
