Phone oferings from Rogers | TA suggestions

Hey guys,

I know there's a lot of wireless-savvy people on the board - I'm looking for your advice!

Currently have a Razr V3, and might have a chance today to score a free phone from rogers. The type of phone I'm looking for is something small (no HTC, or anything Blackberry-like) that ideally fits into a jeans pocket. Razr is pretty good in that regard - put it in the pocket, and I don't even know it's there.

So, any suggestions from TA's? I see there's a Rokr, Krzr, and a bunch of stuff from Samsung and Sony - anything you'd particularly recommend? If it has an MP3 player, or a camera better than 3MP, even better, but small form factor is key!

Thank you guys!

Adam had this one (until I had a BB and he had my iphone) and he really liked it

Nokia 5310 - it's tiny

For a regular cell phone device, I'd go with Sony Erricson...

Samsung F406

Sony W850i

Sony 760m

Or a Blackberry would always be best.

It's a brick and you know it

I can hardly fit it into my back pocket.

But obviously you need even a BIGGER phone... then maybe you wouldnt loose it.

Current plan:
$20 / month for 200 minutes
$11 / month for 200 text messages, 6pm free, vmail, call display, etc

New plan:

$20 / month for 300 minutes
$10 / month for 2000 text messages, 6pm free, vmail, call display, etc

New phone:

$49 - sony w760 on a 1 year contract. current contract expires in 5 months, so they're backdating it. So actually only a 7 month contract. Admin fee waived.

Thanks for the suggestions guys! Maybe I'll call and complain about the cost of the phone and get that waived.
