    anyone got a suggestion for a cell phone (not looking for flame war!) :)

    a lot of new phones are just HUGE... reminds me of the 1980s bricks the investment bankers carried!

    jsut want a simple cell phone that will let me do:

    • make/recv call
    • send/recv txt msgs
    • importantplay mp3s
    • uses standard 3.5mm headphone jack
    • has expandable memory via SD card or similar
    • usb link to update mp3 tracks (device seen usb mass storage)

    i have no need for 20.1gizillion megapixel camera or video capabilities... does such a phone exist?

    thanks for the suggestions, but i find the sony's (ie k750i/w850) still a little too big bulky for me, in particular a little too thick -- and i think the reason for this is cos they have a ridiculous camera...

    [ rant ] why do all the phone manufacturers think that we're all upskirt pervs with these camera phones!?!? [ /rant ]

    I haven't read anything about the radiation and the SLVR but that would be my suggestion. It has all the features you named: makes and receives calls, has text messaging capabilites, has iTunes interface for your mp3s, uses mini usb connector, has headset jack, removable media storage (transflash up to 512mb). It also has extras such as integrated camera, video capture, polyphonic speaker, bluetooth capable, etc.

    If mp3s is very important than this is the phone for you.

    Samsung D600...only does not have the 3.5mm headphone jack, but the Samsung's original headphone is great and provides good base
