I do normally like bar phones more than flip, but Razr is a couple generations in so most of the kinks should be worked out. Rokr's still on it's first revision as far as I know.

I have the ROKR and it serves me pretty well, the music transfer is really slow however. Be prepared to wait 20-30 seconds for each song. The SLVR is the best choice for right now.

Edit: Screw the RAZR!!! nothing special about that phone, its not even the "cool phone" to have anymore. Especially since cingulars $99.99 x-mas sale they did, i see sooo many peopl with one in school nowadays its crazy. I mean unless you really like thin you should get it, just dont assume that it will attract attention from others anymore, as they will probably be talking on theirs. ;)

Most ATers don't buy a phone for looks. I got one because I compared all the phones, and at the price I got it for ($30) it had the most features by far, and was pretty slim.

Oh really? What is your basis for your assumption? surely looks must play a part in the decision......also what do you mean by ATers? Are you classifying someones cellphone choice just by association to this forum?

Razr has better reception, is a flip style phone and has a better screen. It can take low quality pictures and low quality videos

Rockr has an mp3 player and is a candybar style phone, you can also insert a transflash card for more storage of pictures/songs/movies. Again, low quality pictures and videos.

Up to you. I chose the razr cause I like smaller phones because I carry them in my pocket at school.
