In fact, the main factor which is keeping me from "upgrading" my handset is losing the analog coverage.
Well thats all fine and dandy, just as long as you don't use like 1000 minutes a month.

There is one potential situation where I would use 1000 minutes in a month, and that's talking to work. And then, I pay something like $.40 per minute for those minutes not included in my plan, and would expense them to work. In short, I don't care. But I'm not self-employed, and don't have the benefits or the liabilities of such.

I liked mine but the charger jack lost its grip early on. I had to rig a rubber band to hold it in place. Morotola improved that feature big time. I'm on my third cell lifetime, my third Moto, a V710 and trust me, it's a big step up from a Startak. The calender feature is very handy: got a doctor's appointment in a few weeks? Put in a couple of reminders for a few days ahead of time.

Your phone will give you a ringy dingy -- I use a different tone for calls, calender events, and voice mail like everyone else I imagine -- and it makes for fewer missed appointments.

The camera is not that good but it's come in handy in a pinch. Would be good if you get in an accident and you want to document things exactly as they are.
