For years I have used a Motorola Microtac flip phone. It had a thin battery and fit well in my pocket or nail belt. The flip cover kept crud off the keys and prevented inadvertant button pushing. I needed a new battery recently and they dont make the thin batterys anymore, just these big ones. Now I feel like I am carrying a brick around in my pocket. I am thinking about a motorola v-60 color. I have read up on them and the weak link seems to be the antenna. What are you guys using and are you happy with them? I had a loaner phone that wasnt a flip and every time I took it out of my pocket it would have a bunch of random #s entered on it. I know you can lock the keypad but that seems like a pain each time you want to use the phone. What is the Power Wagon of cell phones? (other than an old bag phone!)
Thanks,
Tim
