Motorola V60. Small, light and well-built. Sounds great, and with optional headphones doubles as an FM radio.

I've had my Motorola (Nextel) i550 since first introduced. Dropped three times from my Harley and twice from the roof. Still Ticking!
I solved the drop and lose problem by purchasing a case with the dring style clip that cannot be removed except by turning it upside down. Works great for me.

>Motorola !!!

I agree with Dennis. But since you have to have a PCS phone: Sanyo SCP-6200


External antenna, (such as it is), for the sticks, good battery life and not too many bells and whistles to drain your battery.

Check out: http://www.cnet.com/wireless/0-3366793-8-6247437-1.html

Usally pretty reliable on the techy stuff.

Best Cell Phone?

Thanks for your input guys, I still can't decide which to go with,
I think I may have narrowed it down to the Samsung SPH-A500 or the LG 5350. I love those flip phones!!
I should just tell sprint to get a tower out by my summer place and I wouldn't have a problem!!!

Qualcomm GSP1600, Doesn't quite meet your specs. but has served me very well. Has taken a beating and so far has not stopped ticking. Tri-mode and it really DOES work out in the "sticks".

I never did like nokia. Had too many problems with reception. I love my Motorola I-1000 plus, well I loved it but I lost it on the side of the road somewhere. Not many problems and that thing has taken a beatin also. Dropped 2 stories, ran over, dropped on concrete, thrown around in my truck, ect. Worked good until I lost it and not too bad on the battery, I could get 2 1/2 days outta a batt as long as I turned it off overnight, and 2 days straight.
