Wow! The Droid RAZR is 7.1mm thick... err... thin.
That's 25% thinner than the 4S.

I got a Samsung Exhibit 4g. I am not the type to get the most cutting edge phone, but this one was adequately capable and cheap. I'm loving it so far. My phone does SO much, and I'm barely just learning what I can do with it. Swype freaked out once or twice and I had to force close my messaging, but that's been about it.
I dislike Swype. I used it for a few months when it first came out and then I realized that it's not faster because you have to not only know the spelling of all words but you also have to spell out each letter of the word. I went back to a standard style keyboard (Smart Keyboard to be exact) with predictive text and realized that most words required only entering the first few letters before the entire word showed up in the suggestions and I could simply select it and move onto the next one. This is especially handy when you're typing and are distracted by something because you don't have to finish whatever word you're on to stop. You can look away and come back to complete the word. I liked the idea but in practice it's just not as fast and requires a lot more attention & thought to use.
Crack-Pot! get your tinfoil.
Android for sure "Droid" is Motorola's flavor of android OS and I wouldn't recommend Motorola phones anymore.
And Swype is pretty cool. It will learn the more you use it and pretty soon your don't even have to spell correctly, it will remember what you "meant" by the pattern. Once you have taught it you can swipe very fast and it will work perfectly.
This seems to be another personal preference: Iphone's "autocorrect" has websites dedicated to it's amusing side effects, and using an Ipod touch 4G for 2 weeks was frustrating to me, but 4 days with an android, and I'm already comfortable with swype.Quote:

I'm reconsidering my decision on the iPhone.
According to a friend, the "milspec" Casio GZ One Commando can withstand 8ft drops onto concrete, being submerged in water, and texting in the shower.

I posted about that phone earlier and no one commented on it. I like to read the reviews on the cell phone sites to see which phones are crap or not. One guy said he dropped his off a chair or something and the screen shattered. I still want one.
