Don't hate me, but since my brother in law is president of marketing for the third largest provider of cell phones on the internet (they did $300 million last year), he gets me any phone for free. I just got that funky Motorola Razer phone. Since cell service in my area is spotty, the phone is terrible because it doesn't have a big enough antenna. So he's looking into a Sony Ericsson for me that hasn't yet hit the market. The "sample" phones he gets are usually tweaked for better reception than the ones that sell on the regular market.
