Well, I'm not quite sure what to do about a new phone.  I mean, I'm gonna get one, but keeping it safe is another thing altogether.  First, the contenders.....

LG Expo


And the iPhone


Of course, it's going to be incredibly tough to pick between the two.  The LG has WAY better hardware, and far more potential than the iPhone, but the iPhone has a running start on feature integration and user experience.  Not that LG doesn't have a track record and expansive history with phones, but they are depending on Microsoft for the operating system, and lately, Microsoft has just let me down repeatedly with it's performance in windows mobile and Zune.

Either phone, though will need better protection than my Blackjack II has right now.  Which is pretty much nothing except my pocket.  I stopped carrying other stuff in my pocket a long time ago to protect my phone, but today when I squatted down to pick something up, my pants stretched tight across my leg and my phone went "CRUNCH", much like a peasant on a medieval torture wheel.  I'm gonna use Leeanne's pink Blackjack II until I decide on a new phone, just as soon as I transfer all my phone numbers, notes, tasks, appointments, books, and spreadsheets over to it.  If you have any input on either of those phones, please leave a post and tell me about it.
