You can't even get track information if you didn't import songs with itunes. Is there a program to bypass this? I hate not having proper track information on my songs.
As far as phones go I need just that, a PHONE. I don't need my life in one gadget. The only features I like out of a phone are the ability to text, save phone numbers, and a camera(because it's nice to take a pic of some crazy shit that you see out on the street). Otherwise you can have all that other stuff. My wife has a Motorola Q. To me it's rediculous. It sounds like crap when she talks to me on it. All that money and they can't even get the phone part right. When I get back from the desert in a few weeks I am going to be in the market for a new phone. My old one(a Samsung something) shuts off whenever it feels like it. I'm actually looking at that Motorola KRZR. I can get one as a free upgrade through Verizon(my provider), and it's thin for carrying in my pocket. Anybody have any experience with this phone? The main thing is that I need something that fits in my pocket comfortably.

I forgot all about the iTunes format thing with the iPod. I don't like that either.
My friend that got the iPhone had, previously, the same phone I did. An LG VX8100. That 2 year old phone sounded better (on my end receiving his call) than his new iPhone does. (Though that COULD be due to the iPhone being AT&T/Cingular and the VX8100 being on Verizon. I've noticed Verizon has the best sound quality.)
I don't know about the KRZR, but it sounds like you'd be pretty happy with the LG enV from what you've said you want the phone to do. It's not as little as the RAZR Maxx or KRZR, but it would fit your needs nicely I think.
If you're set on a thin clamshell style phone though, the LGVX8700 looks good and gets high reviews in everything I've read. It was my 2nd choice vs. the enV, the enV only won out due to it have a QWERTY keyboard for ease of entering texts/info.
