Help me pick..

I'm a heavy texter. 400+ per month. I also use internet heavily.

I am looking at one of 3 phones.

Sidekick ID, iphone (not too happy about it), HTC Mogul

Right now I have the Q and I hate it. I am forcing myself out of my SERO contract for a new phone. The keyboard is terrible, it's slow as hell, and the battery (even with the 3200mAh one I bought) sucks.

I loved the ID when I had it for a week, and I love SERO prices.

Basically I'm looking for data first, phone second.

Tmo plan would be 59.99/mo (including SK data), SERO would be 30/mo.

Sounds to me like you have already made your choice. If you're not too happy about the iPhone now, chances are you will not like it once you own it. Right now it has a lot of flaws that will irritate you if you already have something against it. From everything I have heard the Sidekick ID is a pretty good phone, and you seem to really like the idea of having one. So why not just try it out for the 30 day trial period and see if you still enjoy it. If so, then your problem is solved.

Thing is, I enjoy different things between the Mogul and the ID.

ID is an awesome texting machine, that's about it. And for 59.99 a month, its a lot of cash to drop a month compared to the Mogul on SERO for 35$ a month after taxes.

I am just tired of Sprint's CS and junk, but the price is what keeps me there

I cant speak for other phones, but if your a heavy texter, you need an actual keyboard. Iphone's keyboard..meh.

Yeah I figured.

I forgot to mention that I sometimes tether, which is another nail in the sidekick's coffin.

I think I might just suck it up and go back on SERO when they kick me off

I would go with T-Mobile. I currently have T-Mobile and the CS is better than any of the other 3 nationwide carriers

. I am planning on getting the Sidekick LX. I know many people that have the I.D. and after almost a year they don't want to get anything else.

Don't get the Mogul if you can't stand the Q, it will only make you curse even more. Have you tried using a different platform... like the Centro? Although I have heard the keyboard is a little cumbersome at first, many users seem to get used to it after a while. It should also be able to tether and the OS should not be a headache. That's the only thing I can think of if you want to stick with with Sprinto!
