Upgrades:

Ok, so my family doesn't know when we're going to upgrade (or if we will at all). But the thing is, the longer we wait, the more phones come out. I know what I want in a phone - just a touchscreen and a decent camera - but that it seems as though that's a standard nowadays. So, now I have three choices: The Voyager, The Glyde, and the recently added (but not yet released) Dare.
So now with these phones in mind, deliberation begins...

We'll start with the Voyager:
-It has a gracious, 2.81 inch touch screen display (meets that requirement)
A 2 megapixel camera, that takes amazingly clear photos (so that meets my second requirement)
-And also has a bluetooth profile known as FTP, which stands for File Transfer Protocol (for you lazies that don't wanna click the hyperlink)
-Finally a full QWERTY keyboard

Next up, the Glyde:
-Up to par with the Voyager with a 2.80 inch touch screen (check)
-A clean and sharp camera, with an autofocus to boot (check check)
-Unfortunately, no FTP, but it has OBEX. Which is like FTP, but not as advanced
-What it lacks in Blue-Files [I just made that word up and it's mine now] it makes up .for in looks - with a sexy "Glyde" feature.
-Not to mention a QWERTY keyboard

Lastly, the Dare:
-Unknown size touch screen - but looks more than giving touchscreen ✔
-Amazing, 3.2 megapixel camera, and editing software on the phone as well ✓
-Even though the lack of even a glyde-esk QWERTY keyboard, my vote sways this way because of the specs on this badboy!

---Proximity and Light sensors!!!
Now for you who don't know what these are its simple:
*Proximity sensor will turn the screen off when your fat face gets close to it - Thus saving the battery life.
*Light sensor automatically adjusts the screen to the ambient lighting in the room - In turn always having the screen's brightness at an acceptable level.

Dare (cont.)
-Not only these things, but it has an UPGRADED Verizon UI (that's User Interface for all of you guys). Meaning it's not the same ol' screens - It has "updated" version of them.
