I'm personally looking to get the new Sony Erriccson Idou with the Symbian OS. I just hope the phone actually gets released in America as it's rumored to. And that it is released with AT&T. If not then I either have to switch carries, or buy it unlocked ... yeaaah lol. I'd rather stick with what I have if it comes to that.

You know if your are within 30 days of your upgrade date, you can call customer service and request to have your upgrade change.

The cost of the phone is pretty much irrelevant -- the cost of the plan for the minimum allowed contract period, usually 2 years, swamps it out. What's $20 difference when you'll be stuck with the thing for two years and you'll potentially pay out from $1200 to $2500 for the "plan"? The way these dumb things are marketed makes no sense at all. Much better to buy your phone on eBay and deal with your plan provider month to month. That way when a better phone comes along, you can get it.
