After seeing the 8525 I decided to keep the 8125. The only plus I saw in the 85 was the faster processor but I haven't hit any processor related issues wiht mine and the speed seems fine.

The 3G radio, 400MHz Samsung processor versus the 200MHz OMAP TI processor. The 8525 also has a much improved light sensing backlight, hard Windows and OK buttons (No more having to run softskeyL and uses MicroSD instead of MiniSD. The 8525 doesn't have a dedicated micro headphone jack. I also believe the 8525 supports Bluetooth 2.0.

Or get assraped with the pay as you go plan.

Plus all the stupid extra fees I'm sure... but I'm paying almost $60 right now with my crappy sprint phone that can't even get a signal at my house...

The prices are though our companies Corporate Discount plans...

anything higher then that and i'm not gonna bother.

...due to corporate policy. A couple of the guys that work for me have the 8125 and wish they could upgrade to the 8525 - though I couldn't tell you why.

Probably make the switch late next week.
