Hello everyone. After a ton of searching/comparing/etc., I think that the Audiovox SMT 5600 phone might be perfect. However, I can't seem to get any conclusive answers to a couple of my questions. Here goes:
1) Can I use this phone to jump on various wireless networks including my home wireless G router cable network, wireless via stores like Starbucks, etc.?
2) If #1 is 'yes', can I receive phone calls while surfing on said networks?
3) What is the maximum size of the Mini SD card I can use with this phone?
4) I live in the Seattle area. I don't need many minutes and I would need to access the internet (outside of any wi-fi network) to check stock quotes, enter orders, etc. (I'm a stay-at-home-Dad that trades stocks) on occasion-do you have any recommendations for service plans that would work for my situation?
Thanks for any and all comments.

you can't use wifi with this phone so you couldn't connect to the network at starbucks. the best you could do is use the passthrough via actiive sync. you can always get the unlimted data for 20 dollars

Are there phones out there similar to this that can use wifi?

you can try a treo thats what i have there is a wifi card for it. or you can try a pocket pc. the only problem is there bigger than 5600. i think the newer verison coming out will have wifi on it i think its called htc 8125 not sure check the cingular phone forum

It is 1 gb at present, but I think this will increase. The phone will take any size minisd card when they become available, no maximum.
