    I know the feeling. I bought my razr v3c last Christmas, and the beginning of this summer they started touting the new v3m, which plays mp3s and has GPS navigation software. If I had just waited a few more months, I'd have gotten a cooler phone.

    I seen the upcoming Blackberry, looks very nice indeed. I have a 7105t that I've had for a while, but I'll probably look at "upgrading" to the new one, especially if it has a camera. Granted, my usage of the phone is about 95% business and 5% personal, but there are lots of times I'm out with friends and wish I had a camera with me.

    By the way, RIM was running a "special" for a while on BES (not sure if they still are). If you bought a Blackberry, they'd give you a copy of the Express edition of BES along with one free CAL. That was the deciding factor for me, as I set up a new 2K3 server at work running just BES. If you're not running BES, don't bother with the Blackberry, period. There's the other option where you run their desktop software to "redirect" mail to the Blackberry, but there is no synchronization between the BB software and your desktop software (presumably, Outlook).
