I'm an ATT customer ready to break into the 21st century with my first smart phone. I've always been a minimalist that thought phones only needed to make calls, but I realize some of the other features are nice to have. I'm halfway tech retarded, so I won't be rooting these phones or jailbreaking anything.
With that in mind, it seems the Atrix, Aria, Inspire, and iPhone are the best smart phones in ATT's lineup today. I would really like to stay away from the iPhone, but I just threw it in for comparison sake. The things I care about are: no dropped calls, easy to use keyboard, battery life, durability, and availability of apps. Being able to connect to wireless and tethering would be nice too, but tethering isn't a deal breaker.
Reading through this site and random Google searches, it looks like the Aria is the predecessor to the Inspire? How did they improve the Inspire over the Aria? How does the Atrix stack up to both of them? What does the iPhone do that the Droid phones can't? How do HTC and Motorola compare?
Also, are there any new phones coming out in the next few months that would make it worth it to me to wait? I would really love to have a flip out keyboard because I can't type worth a shit on my wife's iPhone, but the only ATT phones that have the keyboard are either the Blackberry, Palm, or LG Quantum. Any Droid's have a actual keyboard?
EdIT: I guess I should throw in the Captivate also.
Thanks!
