Yes, I caved ... I got a smart phone. It all started with my boss, Steve, who was perfectly happy with his non-smart phone, but was very unhappy with AT&T and their refusal to give him a corporate discount. Long story short, Verizon offered him an awesome deal on a Droid II and 18% off his monthly bill. He had so much fun showing off how smart his phone is that half the firm downtown switched over and upgraded their phones and bailed on their previous providers ... including me.
Although, I had to pay an early termination fee to AT&T of about $100, it was worth it. Aside from being my phone, my Droid Incredible will be replacing my PDA that died a couple of years ago, my GPS that I've not updated maps since 2007, my digital camera that is really bulky, and the mp3 player that I was planning on buying for Christmas/birthday. Have I sufficiently talked myself into the upgrade? I must say, my Droid Incredible is pretty incredible.
Oh yeah, I'll also be paying about $20 less a month with Verizon than what I was paying for AT&T for the same service with a better phone (and portable internet -- MiFi) and a few extra perks ...
