Upgrading Phone from T616 to T637

I've been using a Sony Ericsson T616 on AT&T Wireless for about 8 months now. The phone is great, as it is very lightweight, small enough to fit in my pocket along side a PDA , and has several features that I use, such as AIM and Yahoo IM, an IMAP email client, a small but usable camera, voice dialing and bluetooth-hosted internet dial-up. Unfortunately, the menus on the phone are tediously slow, and worse, the reception is poor enough to cause frequent dropouts and garbled calls.

Per a recommendation from my friend Jimbo, I upgraded to the newer T637. It has an identical feature set to the T616, but the menus are noticeably snappier, and the reception is excellent. I haven't had a dropped call yet. And as a bonus, it has an easier-to-dial keypad, and it's a hair lighter and a millimeter or two thinner. This is the perfect phone to get me through the year until all of the groovy gadgets being shown at the 3GSM World Congress come out.
