HELP me pick a new phone please
It is time to get a new phone and I am clueless. It has to be on Verizon's network. I would like to go with a smartphone like a Driod or iPhone. Any thoughts? Recommendations?

Ditto the others about trying out the phones in a store. If you have 4G in your area, you might consider getting a 4G phone. As a PP mentioned, the iPhone on Verizon is a little different; you can't talk and browse the internet at the same time. It's something to think about, if you think that may be an issue for you. Personally I really love my Droid and think it's much better than an iPhone, but obviously not everyone feels that way, so it's good to check the phones out for yourself!
FWIW, one of the deciding factors for me was having an actual keyboard (and being able to use flash, and view full, rather than mobile, versions of websites). The ability to talk & browse simultaneously is a bonus, but I don't think it would have swayed me if I couldn't do it because I don't use it very often.
I used to think that until I actually starting using one. It seems like if you go by specs some android phones would clearly beat the iphone, but from my experience the iphone has much better screen quality (which in its specs it does as well), camera (even with the same megapixels), lags much less with specs being relatively the same or better on android phones. Apple's operating system just seems to work without all that lagging and force closes I had problems with on my android phone.
I think it depends on what you really want in a phone. It's a very individual choice, but I am so much happier with my iphone than I was with my android phone.
