I'm on AT&T and last Wednesday I got a Samsung Rugby. Upgraded the phone online and got it for $192 with tax. Sent in for the $50 rebate, I'm suppost to receive in 6 to 8 weeks. My previous two phones were Motorala's. A V400 and a Razor. Motorala quality really has gone down. The Razor didn't last a year and a half.
Love the Rugby. They say it's built to military spec's and holding it and seeing how it's built I believe it. The best thing about it is it's volume is loud. It has three volume levels to choose, Normal, Driving and Outdoors. The volume level range goes up starting at Normal and you still can adjust that level. Driving is a higher volume level etc. My hearing is pretty bad from being around airplanes and gunfire over the years, but I still have to turn down the volume on the normal setting. I've never been able to do that on other phones (5) I've had over the years. Haven't used the Driving or Outdoors modes much other than seeing what they do.
My wife likes the new phone and now she wants a Rugby too when she can upgrade. That's my .02 cents on phones.
