Good Bye Verizon, Hello Moto PEBL
Dear Verizon,
I wish I could say, "it's not you, it's me," but the fact is you treated me badly and I've met someone else. Let's face it, ours was a relationship of convenience, there was never any love. I know that hurts to hear, but after so long I feel at least I owe you the truth: Verizon, you're an ass, plain and simple.
You were available when I wanted service and not much more. I mean to say New York is a big city and there are lots of options for me here. Maybe if we were both stuck in a small town you'd still be my best choice—nah—sorry I'd still have to dump you for being a jerk.
I mean, I can only take so much abuse. Honestly, I've heard from some of your other ex-'s and I'm not the only one who wasn't happy with your controlling personality. I hope some day you grow up and become capable of a healthy, happy relationship.
Sorry to pop this on you with out much notice, but I've arranged to move my number out already. Hopefully I'll be out of your way soon.

Amazing...I just did the exact same thing - but for different reasons. Basically, Verizon's reception wasn't doing it for me around NYC, and my friend's T-mobile reception is better - so, just walked into a T-mobile store and signed up. The reception does seem better. But, I got the Pebl and my wife got the Razr - I was a little bummed this morning when my PEBL wouldn't sync with my Mac and my wife's RAZR synced right up. Great phones, but it kind of seems like my wife's RAZR camera takes better pics than PEBL camera. I'll be recording some ringtones for sure.

But hey, I didn't buy it for the camera, and I suspect you didn't either. As for iSync support, I bet its coming soon, the RAZR has been out a lot longer and gained popularity. I'm sure that the PEBL is not far behind.
