Im really starting to get tired of my curve that i got when tmo first released it. Im just torn between toughing it out until the end of the year and maybe getting a touch pro or like the htc dream at that time but im just trying to find out wha all of you guys think. Or if there is a comparable gsm phone that is reasonably priced

I just got the N73 2 weeks ago and I have to say that it is an awesome phone & I am so glad I bought it. The best phone I've ever used. I've had a lot of phones & Ialways seem to come back to Nokia. I've always preferred flip phones, but not anymore. Nokia really hasn't come out with a good S60 series flip, so I decided on the N73. I had the N75 & that was so horrible. Too many problems I won't go into. I am so pleased with the N73. Reception is awesome. Operating system is pretty fast. Email works great. (Both pop3 and Imap.) The camera takes great pics. Outdoor pics are beautiful and the auto focus is really good. Indoor pics aren't as good, but are still better than the all the other phones I've had. Also, I love that there is a sliding cover over the camera lens. That's the one thing I really missed from my 6682. I've had Windows Mobile phones and the S60 operating system is much better IMO. It's faster and less buggy. The only complaint about the N73 that some people have & may affect you is the battery life, but for me it's fine. I charge it every morning before work anyway. Also, ringtones are loud and clear. I could never hear my Motorola Q9h or my Nokia N75 ring half the time. Bottom line, I love the N73 and will keep it for a very long time. I have no complaints about it at all.

Well N73 is a older phone and that's why the OS wont be as fast as newer S60 phones and RAM is on a bit low side so multitasking wont be as good as it's with the new S60 phones.
What's the price range you are looking? N73 isnt crappy phone by no means, but it's a bit slow thought.

I was thinking around $375 or lower. Im not a huge fan of sliders which was the primary reson why i sold my N80 after like 3 days of use

Save up for the N82 or maybe consider the 6220 Classic. Both 5MP with xenon.
You could get a used N82 for $400 and I would guess the 6220 starts at $400.
