My sister is looking into getting a mobile phone, and while I've tried to convince her to stay away from AT&T (by showing her this and this), she's not convinced that she shouldn't consider their phones. She wants a phone that's cheap (i.e., not the G1 or Curve), at least as part of a plan. She wants something with which she can freely make her own ringtones, and isn't restricted to what the carrier provides without hacking (hi Verizon!). It's just that there's so many phones out there, and it's often hard to know what weight reviews on various sites carry. Engadget and Gizmodo are more news sites. Is there any site out there with a knowledgable community on which you can view the details and reviews of different carriers and their phones? Someone suggested this to me, and while it does provide some good comparisons of relative prices, it's very lacking in the technical details and aforementioned community (mainly for the purpose of reviews).
