Jack -- Thanks.
If both the Thunderbold and the Lattitude are available from Verizon, what
are some of the differences that might sway me from one to the other.

I hadn't considered getting a new phone until my phone died yesterday --
This is all a fact finding mission for me so I don't have to leave the house
naked (sans cell phone).  The only reason I'm looking at an Android now is
that I had told myself months ago that if I ever lost or broke my old phone
I would replace it with an Android.  I never looked at what was available as
I didn't have money to buy toys for myself.  I feel, however, that if I got
a "regular" phone at this point, I'd never get a smart phone (or at least
not for years -- which may mean "never").

I really do need all the suggestions that you all can provide!

Thanks
