I'm not planning on getting internet access for the phone. I don't even know how that works. If I didn't get the access, then would I still be able to use the internet on it through my wireless router at home for free? Answered see above

It seems like this HTC touch might be the best phone offered from verizon right now. Is it worth it? Yes What type of things can be done on it? Everything you can think of, thats why its the best. With and without the internet? without the internet the phone can still play music take nice pics imo, play many games. You can get a lot of things by downloading them to your home computer then transeferring them to your phone thru the usb cable

I've also heard of the LG Dare coming out soon. I don't think that's a PPC, but is that a phone that could be worth getting? dont know anything about the Dare. I'm really new to this higher tech phone stuff, but I'd really like to get something really nice this next time around. I'm I able to use this phone without a data plan (what is that?). A data plan is an internet plan. it allows u to use sprints internet service without extra charges. Or could I use it with my normal plan? you can use the internet with your normal plan but you would charged excessively.

Thanks for all the answers to my stupid questions, but I've been reading though a bunch of the posts and i'm so confussed about all the terminology, like rom's and kitchens, and flashes, and whatever.

And can you believe I'm only 25? Sounds like I'm 50 with how out of it I am.

it is a lot of reading on this site but the information is invaluable. so keep on reading and google the terms your not familiar with.
