Nokia 6820b
Keep it or lose it?
I am on week three of a 30 day trial with this phone with ATTws. I have yet to try the "EDGE", mainly because I haven't had the time nor the USB cable (my SONY PCG-C1VN dosen't have IR) to test.
The only feature which I absolutely love about this phone is the speakerphone. People don't even know that I am using it! And, of course the GSM gets better reception than the crappy TDMA which I have been using.
Thanks for any advice!

Keeping aside it's poor display and slow menu response it's a pretty decent phone. RF is acceptable and EDGE does rock.
Instead of investing in the USB cable why not just get a Bluetooth adapter and use the phone wirelessly on your laptop?

It's a good, solid phone, though if you don't have any use for the extended keyboard you could probably with with a cheaper model. For data you could also use infrared and not have to invest in a cable or bluetooth, though it can be a little tricky configuring your laptop to use IR for the data connection.
