Just look on telephone provider websites and check out their phones and see what meets your specifications or go to the store itself and ask about it. Asking about it here will only confuse you and only you know what you want. |

I have the Samsung m500, it's all of those things. It has an expandable memory slot, which I like. Clamshell design, really small and light. I have this baby in black:
There's some newer models that are prolly better than mine in the same style out there now. Samsung fo life! |

I have the Verizon Env. BADASS! I had a blackberry for oneday before i returned it. I hated it. I love the Env. Best part is that you can hack the damn thing to get things semi-free. Normally the Navigator is $10 a month, i got it for $10 for life!

i'm rockin this bad boy:
had it for probably 2.5 years now, little more if anything
dropped it off buildings, left it in my friends driveway for a week once (snowed once and rained 3 separate times, and got run over once while in a puddle there) and it still works in fine
doesn't do any of that mp3 and the camera's useless, but who the cares
it calls people, and it can send txt messages
i've always felt like i should get a new phone, and cause i'm doing it through verizon and i've had it >2 years i got 100 bucks towards a new one, but the way things are working i might wait till its been 4 years and get a $200 phone free :wtf: |

Sony Ericsson W610, W810, or K810
Then of course there's the Nokia N95, but I highly doubt you can afford that. |
