Re: GSM: The Joy of Unbranding....
Indeed  . Arguably, you gain more unbranding the HTC smartphones, such as the Tilt & Fuze, than you ever will on the SE line since the Tilt/Fuze are so much more capable. I suppose you're referring to what you've read about @ XDA? |

| Whatever do you mean? I have full internet access, I have GMAIL mobile, I have GPS, I can blog photos directly to my blog, and it's a damn good cellphone....yeah it's not as speedy at only 1.5mbs and I don't have wifi (but other SE phones do), but it only cost me $49 to start and I don't have a $30/mo data contract for my 'unlimited' 5GB, it's half that. Touch screen? Don't need it. All SE phones have 1,000 phone number capability with assigning multiple phones and addresses to a single contact and personal notes, voice control, and everything that most 'smartphones' do..... except for the swap of video for GPS, all the other features are the same except for the 'lost' advertising/sales push sites.

Two things I *do* appreciate about the z750a are the FM radio and the fact that it's a flip phone that includes the 2100 UMTS band for my (albeit) infrequent trips across the pond. I actually grabbed a refurb for a family member for this reason.
Keep in mind the convenience large touch/screens has already started to sway the market in the other direction. Granted, sometimes this is not implemented very well on some of the handsets offered by the various U.S. wireless carriers. Also, FWIW I am not forced to pay ATT $30/mo for data, and the cap you mention is a soft one. Only tethering a laptop via my Tilt will ever get me into hot water per se. Having wifi makes this device ultimately extremely flexible to rarely have to bother w/ 3G data. I really only add $15 data when traveling stateside for extended periods away from wifi.
cheers,
