phones

so i went to AT&T Wireless today to get a new phone. i chose them for the simple reason that they're the only cell company with decent coverage in and around the EA campus. the new phone is a Nokia 3100, very cute and little and with many nifty new features. however, i'm wondering if i should have gone for the even smaller Samsung clamshell that would also have been free. it had nothing the Nokia doesn't have, but it had a sexier and slightly more functional set of controls and nestled so comfortably in the palm of my hand... i mostly picked the Nokia because i'm familiar with them, but now i question myself.

which is fine. i have 30 days to decide; if i want the other one, i can go back and exchange phones for free. nifty.

so. aside from the usual complaints about clamshell phones not being durable, does anyone have opinions on the newer Samsung clamshells?
