LG Voyager, Dare, enV2, Chocolate 3, Decoy, BB Curve, HTC xv6900, Samsung Glyde (damn I hate that phone LOL), Flipshot, Moto Kraze... thats pretty much what I have to say. Oh, and not to mention the HTC Diamond and Pro, as well as the Storm coming in the near future.

xxxgamer is obviously an immature little child who has his/her parents buy his/her phone for him/her or is a SPRINT/ATT/or TMOBILE employee, lol either way...

Agree. If I find a phone as good as the LG VX5400 in terms of call quality, reception, and battery life, I'll be very happy. This and the LG VX8350 are among the best rated phones for Verizon for call quality and reception. Plus the VX5500 is much thinner (0.73 inches ) compared to the VX5400 (0.89 inches)! This is KEY!!! Also it's lighter (3.05 ounces versus 3.21 ounces for the VX5400). And it looks better (which is not saying too much since the VX5400 wasn't the best looking phone)! Don't get me wrong, I'm not against converged PDA/phones, but I haven't had the best possible call quality and reception from those devices. I want a phone where I can make a call from any place and make it sound as crystal clear as possible. This is my gold standard. I'll carry my PDA when I'm at work, my real camera when I need to carry it, and my SiRF Star III GPS receiver in my car.

You'll pay for that thinness in batt life. Generally, im in full agreement tho.

Thanks for the comment..... It would make sense that thinner would be worse in terms of battery life. However, the battery on the VX5500 is 950 mAh (max talk time 300 min) versus the VX5400 which has a 1000 mAh battery (max talk time 280 min). Doesn't seem like much of a difference. What do you think?
