Suggest a phone for verizon
Are there any Verizon phones that are out that are similar to a smart phone but aren't? I want the organization of a smart phone/Blackberry but don't want to pay the extra 50$ a month for Internet.

Does the EnV Touch naviagate the internet well? Do you like it?
I had a touch screen when they first came out and hated it. But it's been several years... is it time to try it again?
If you want it to use it for the internet all the time, I wouldn't recommend it. It's kind of slow and awkward. If you want to have it to be able to look things up once in a while it's fine.
I really like the touch screen. I've had no issues with it on the enV Touch. It does open up with another screen and a qwerty keyboard, plus the touchscreen has a qwerty keyboard if you turn the phone to landscape.
My DS has the enV 3 and really likes it. It's essentially the same as the touch without the touch screen.
Before my blackberry I had the samsung glyde. That touch screen was horrible. It always froze or it would constantly get stuck on one button. I think the touch screens are now better. They are less sensitive.

I recommend the enV Touch too. Like you, I didn't want to have to pay for a data plan, and you don't have to get one with it.
It's good for texting and short messages since it has a full keyboard. I don't use it for the internet currently.
I switched from a BB to the enV3 and I really like it. However, I never ever get online with it. IMO, verizon's software is just not usable for anything online. I now have a work BB that replaced my storm.
You can get a windows mobile smartphone without a data plan, but you won't be able to get online unless you have one that's wifi capable. I don't even know if any of them are, actually.
GL!
