Had some trouble with Telus, their store, their customer service, and tech support. Lies were told and damage was done. My Vogue is still functional, but barely. After 6 months of complaining I got this:

I was promised any phone of my choice, out of everything they have available... regardless of cost, in exchange for the Vogue. The offer is a standing offer, meaning I can take it now or the last day of the contract or any day between.

Now, I know there's some vogue fans out there... and I know I could put a cooked rom on it (or wait for the official one)... but I've really just about had it with this thing... So, please... weigh in on the choices... throw as much information and opinion at me as you can! I'm begging you!

My three options as I see it right now:

1. Ask for a replacement Vogue, waiting perhaps until after it gets a firmware update. Pros are: Keeping all my accessories (aluminum case/2 soft cases/custom headset). Cons are: It probably still wont have GPS, and the update has been delayed several months already.

2. MOTO Q 9c - Nice phone, another good brand. Pros are: Can still use a bluetooth keyboard. Has GPS. Slightly crappier camera, but with a flash. Cons are: Less memory, a different form factor, but still supposedly a solid phone. It's also heavier and bigger. Don't know about an update ever coming for this phone.

3. Wait for something new, better, cooler. This is where I'm lost. Is there any upcoming phone that Telus may pick up this summer I may want? What's new and exciting? Help!

I'm going to go ahead by being a Vogue owner and say get a new one. In the last year I've gone from Treo 700p > Treo 700w/x > Samsung i760 > Titan > to my current Vogue. Now these phones may not be ones your looking at or have a choice of, but out of these phones, this has been by far the best. I see it this way, it has TONS of memory, lightweight, bluetooth 2.0, and with the custom ROMs, the GPS. Especially with money already invested in accessories, I suggest sticking with it. I liked it the day I picked up, love it even more now with the new ROM!
