Carputer - BT and 3G - Not in plan now

I'd appreciate any thoughts on what phone I should get.

I've got a computer in my car now. I've got a bluetooth dongle on it. I will be using the car speakers and the computer mic as a headset (phoco s/w, roadrunner frontend). I don't want to use a USB connection, either (I could, but dammit, it's my car and it's much cooler to leave the phone in my pocket).

What I'm looking for is a stylish phone, able to handle multiple bluetooth connections, and not too many features I won't be using. I'd like to have roaming internet access on some sort of unlimited plan for whenever I'm out of range of a wifi hotspot. The Razr and the Cingular Media Net Unlimited plan would have been perfect, but apparently the Razr can only handle 1 BT connection - so it's unuseable for my purposes. I'm in Connecticut, so I'm covered by pretty much every provider that's in the northeast US.

Things like MP3, Video, etc. are unnecessary as I've got a way better setup in the carputer. I understand I might not be able to avoid some of those features, but they're not important to me. Similarly, I don't want to pay for all the PDA stuff, as it's all handled by the car already.

Thanks in advance
