Default Reccomendations on verizon phone

As the title says. I'm up for an upgrade and am looking at the verizon razor or the samsung sch a930. I actually don't care too much about all the trinkets that they seem to be putting on phones lately. I would rather have a smaller phone than have a bunch of crap on it like a camera etc etc. Any other reccomendations on phones that will work with verizon

yeah but that phone is quite a bit larger than the two that i have listed isn't it? It's also a must that it come with an OEM platic belt clip type attachment so I can wear it on my belt at work

hmmm, saw one at the store and it seemed pretty decent in size. I think equivalent to the old Ipod mini. Some minuses are lack of a speakerphone, and I think it only supports a lanyard (no clip).

Unfortunately, with Verizon, you're limited to the Razr, Blackberry and Palm for cool phones.

I have the chocolate. It isn't that big. I always slide it into my pants pocket, and it never bothers me there. It is fairly heavy for the size. I don't know about speaker phone, but it does have a speaker you can play music through. A slight minus for me is that you can't use it as a modem like my old phone could. I guess I don't really need to do that anymore anyway. The music sounds great but I'm dissapointed that you can't load the phone with MP3's from your computer using bluetooth. You have to buy the USB cable in the $30 kit. I'm impressed with everything else.
