Got a new cell phone over the weekend. The Samsung SCH-u740

I have been thinking about changing providers (from Verizon) for a while, in an effort to get a cheaper data plan, but then on the other hand have been thinking: I dont REALLY want to be always connected to email and such do I? For about the last 3 months, I've been using text messaging and free 411 info to get sports scores, etc. and that seems to suit me. The only downside is I hate typing text messages on the phone number pad.

This Samsung phone is about the best QWERTY keyboard I could find without going up to the full Smart Phones with Windows Mobile, etc. I'll still maybe someday have one of those for all the other things I can do with it (navigation, golf distancing, write and run my own C# software, etc) but for now, this is a good mix.

Anyway - some sites to keep track of...

• BitPim (here) - PC software to manipulate data on the phone
• Ringtone stuff (here) - create (?) and download free ringtones
• FAQ page (here)
• USB / Bluetooth drivers and software (here)
