While you are at it Shrek, thoughts on the Sidekick before i spend 1.5 times as much on a 7730??

Yes, the charger will work. (6710 chargers work on the 6710, 6720, 6750, 7730, 7750, 7780), Verizon sells the 6750.

The Sidekick is nice, but the Sidekick II is on it's way in a few weeks and it's improved a lot. Email is fast and the device does AOL instant messenger.

BUT, it's battery life is poor (just over a day) and it isn't the most reliable device out there.

But pricewise it is a very good deal.
