My cell phone has been fked up for a while.. Had a LG1400 and it fell out of my pocket at work while I was mowing.. Wel, I wash my mower off and soon discover my phone setting on the deck soaked.. It totally fked my screen up and now its backwards and diagonal.. Recently my phone has decided to randomnly send data transfers?! Last months bill had $22.00 extra charges on it and cingular wouldnt take them off.. The two months extra charges before that totaled up to $25.. So thats $72 this fricken phone has costed me already.. I have had 13 months..

So i am wanting a phone with bluetooth, video, and speakerphone..All things my current phone lacks. I don't want to spend over $150.. Everyone around here has Razrs and Slvrs so I am trying to steer away from them.. I want something a little different.. Any ideas?

Yes. Go to Cingular, see what they have available, and then search some reviews like I did. Otherwise, get a SLVR or RAZR and be a wacky conformist.

RAZRs are the anti-christ. fucking overrated and better for the money. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

The Sony Ericsson z520a, available at Cingular, $40 with a 2 year agreement, $130 otherwise.

sony ericson makes 90% shit phones for cell phones, the 10% that are good are about 3 times that 150 price tag. http://myworldphone.com/samsungd510.html that is my personal recommendation if you can spend an extra 70. the d510 is a good phone i love my e900. that samsung doesn't have bluetooth though so if you want something with bluetooth try, http://www.myworldphone.com/N7610.htm an awesome phone but it's again 239 so a little higher than you want but a sweet phone.

I got my razr from radio shack for $30. Thats about how much its worth. See if they still have that deal going on.
