More cell phone thoughts - touch phone?

So Andy has said that he texts a lot, including to Justin Timberlake. So I'm beginning to think that he probably has a touch phone. Ever since Apple released its iPhone back in 07, all the technology companies have been releasing touch phones and other touch hardware and software.

That led me to explore some cell sites, including one I found about Touch Phones:

So who has touch phones? What kinds are there? I found the following types of touch phones (images from the Touch Phones site)...

Nokia:



HTC:



Samsung:



LG:



Apple:



T-Mobile/Google:



They've got an interesting category of plans called Touch Phones pay as you go. I assume that these are plans where you don't pay monthly and you just pay per minute or text that you use. It seems like that might be a more expensive alternative unless you don't use your phone much.

Then they also have Cheap Touch Screen Phones for those of us on a tight budget. Using their sweet filter system, we narrowed it down to 902 phones under 15 Euros a month. 607 of those have unlimited texts. But only 39 of them have unlimited texts and 200 minutes a month.

And probably one of the most unique categories they have, is that you can browse the touch phones by free gift you get when subscribing to the plan:

There are 3,000 plans you could choose from to get a free Nintendo DSi! Wow, that's pretty cool.


Anyway,this blog doesn't have much to do with Andy, but we thought we'd post it anyway to show homage to his love of texting, and obviously Touch Phones are the best way to text.


Enjoy!
