If you get a T-Mobile gphone, be prepared to be disappointed. The 
Bluetooth API doesn't work which makes things more difficult than they 
should be; the phone can be mounted via usb, but integrating the data 
isn't the simplest thing.

Frankly, if I was getting a new phone, I'd go the apple route. Android/ 
t-mobile has been a real letdown.
