Nokia 8100
Iphone 3GS
Iphone 4

Even though the Nokia 8100 was a dumbphone it felt like a prestige phone. Hefty weight, solid construction, it just stood out from the rest. Still can't beleive I paid $500 for it, and that's with a 2yr contract lol, even Apple can't get that kind of money out of me.

Then: Razr v3xx on AT&T (got it free on a family plan with my dad) I was pretty fond of that phone. Over 2 years old at that time.

That Oct: Got my own plan and a 3GS.

Now: iPhone 4 on AT&T (Got it on release day for $299 and sold my unlocked 3GS for $325) Cost me $20 all in all for the phone/new case.

Future: Either iPhone 5 or SGS2, most likely on AT&T if they ever get their LTE plan rolling. Rumor is early Jan for my area for LTE.

Still with ATT using iphone 3Gs. The phone still works fine, but the volume button fell off. I will probably upgrade next year.

Actually, no. Yesterday I finally cancelled and ate the ETF. Fucking tired of Verizon ass raping me. Now I am only using the HD7.

2 years ago: Casio "GzOne" Type-S on Verizon
Today: HTC Thunderbolt on Verizon

Used T-Mobile briefly in between, with the G2 by HTC.

T-Mobile got me hooked on smart phones, wireless data, and the portable wifi hotspot, but failed to impress with their network coverage, especially in the far-out burbs and rural areas. I knew from the second month that I would switch back to Verizon sooner or later, and so I did about a week before Verizon ended new sign-ups for unlimited data.
