Default Help me pick a new phone?

I'm stickin with Verizon, and there's no way I'm gonna change that h:

BUT, come december, I get a renewal incentive. Originally, I was gonna get a Samsung A930:

I love the look closed, and the price is right.


ON the other hand, I found out that not only is Samsung releasing their new U710/U740:

But the LG9900 is coming out too:
http://www.phonearena.com/htmls/LG-V...ne-p_1616.html

Both of the last two will probably be very expensive... SO...

Should I get the economical, good looking A930, or should I spend the money and get one of the cutting edge phones above?

My useless, not-what-you-wanted-to-hear reply:

Switch to Cingular and snag the new Samsung BlackJack i607. Cingular has HSDPA service where you're at which is 3g broadband speeds like Verizon's EVDO.

This way you'd be like having a Motorola Q but without all the software troubles and whatever else the Q is known for. Unless of course, this Samsung turns out to be just as buggy as the Q.

I specifically do not want a smartphone though. I just don't find their usefulness to outweigh their size and price.

And no LG Chocolates or White Chocolates. I think that phone is particularly ugly h:
