I love the LG Slide, it has a very good camera and cool abilities. It is also very pretty : ). the screen works as a mirror when the back light is off. But, I traded it in for my iPhone and never looked back.
I use the Samsung Blackjack which I think is great. I have had it for 2 years now and no problems. I might get the Blackjack II instead of an iPhone but not sure yet.
The best was the Razr v3 I think. Just simple enough and small enough.
The LG VU is a good touch screen phone and it has a qwerty keypad in landscape mode when you turn he phone side ways. It’s kind of like the LG Dare but a little more simple. And if you watch TV a lot this phone is good for you. I am going to get it soon!
