Thread: I need a new phone, which carrier/phone intergrates the easiest?

As an added bonus, the n900 will integrate well with LinuxICE (as soon as I get mine). But you may only appreciate that if you like things that run fast and that are easy to setup and maintain :P.

while it will work on ATT, you will not be able to take advantage of the 3G connection. Who wants to tether on EDGE speeds nowadays??

and i'm not sure if ATT will let you sign up a data plan without a contract.

his best option would be a Tilt2, Pure and *gasp* an Iphone

the upcoming HD2 will be useless on ATT 3G, since it'll be Tmobile exclusive.
and even the unlocked version is missing the 850 UMTS.
