I finally finally upgraded my cell phone. My old v70 has been sputtering and dropping calls like crazy over the last several months, not to mention my battery life was down to one 10-minute call each day, requiring a full charge overnight. Unacceptable. So I upgraded.

I ended up going with the Razr V3 honestly because it was the least expensive phone upgrade T-Mobile offered that still featured Bluetooth. I kind of wanted to get one of the more expensive Nokias that supported Salling Clicker, but I guess my limited means got the better of me. I’m holding out hope that either Salling or Motorola will update something that will allow the two to work together.

The Bluetooth is awesome, though. I can leave the phone across the room, nay, in another room and still make a clear and fast connection. I can download crappy cell phone camera shots and upload custom ringtones that I can make in iTunes. I’m still trying to figure out the whole Java game thing, but honestly, I’m not going to play games on my cell phone. I’m really just glad it A) Has crystal clear sound and good reception; B) Doesn’t drop calls; C) Battery lasts for days; and D) syncs wirelessly and easily with my PowerBook’s Address Book.

I have heard that the newer Razr, the v3i, or whatever, is going to support iTunes. Honestly, I could care less. Taping a Nano to the back of a Razr is a better solution for combining cell phone and mp3 player at the moment, so I’m not heartbroken.

I’ve been using the phone for about a week now, and I’m thrilled so far. That could have a lot to do with the fact that using my last phone was like trying to talk through a blender. I’ll let you know if anything goes awry.
