I signed up for a new 2-year agreement with Verizon Wireless this week, and got a new Kyocera KX414 phone. The reviews on this phone over at Wireless Gaming Review aren’t too good, but I wasn’t really intending to use it for gaming. I’m trying to decide if I should sign up for Get It Now for e-mail and web access, then just cancel my palm.net account. It’d be cheaper, but the screen is so tiny, and there’s only the numeric keypad, so it seems like it’d be a pain to use.

I’ve been doing some more research into Verizon’s deal on the Kyocera 7135. It now appears as though it might be a bit more expensive than I originally thought, but not by much. I may be able to get a discount based on my company’s corporate plan, though, so that might bring it back down a few bucks. Verizon sure doesn’t make it easy to figure out their pricing plans.

I’m thinking about trading in my cell phone and my Palm i705 for a Kyocera 7135 from Verizon. It would wind up costing me about the same per month as my current cell phone service (about $25) and my Palm.net service (about $20) combined. The only problem is that the unit costs about $500. Maybe I should wait a little while longer. Go here for a nice review on the unit.
