Ok. So I have spent probably 4 hours researching phones and still can't make up my mind. I was going to go with the Audiovox SMT 5600, but it was not availabile in my city. But I do have a better idea of what kind of cell phone I want. If anyone could give me a suggestion that would be great. Here is what I'm looking for.
Need-
1.) Camera Phone
2.) Good picture (atleast 65k)
3.) Decent price ( $49.99-$150.00 after all rebates/offers)
4.) A smartphone with some applications that can help me keep organized.
5.) An mp3 player.
6.) CDMA
Want-
1.) Capable of interent access.
2.) Can watch streaming multimedia.
3.) Speakerphone
If anyone could give me any suggestions that would be really cool.

Ok lets say that we knocked off the restrictions on price to less then $400. I want a good smartphone that has lots of multimedia features and will keep me organized for college and all the activities i'm in (And is fun).

What did you mean the SMT5600 is not available in your city?
First, what carrier are you using? You mentioned CDMA, so I'm assuming Sprint PCS maybe?
If you're with Sprint, I would recommend the TREO 650. This is probably the best Smartphone out right now. If you want a smaller form-factor, and you have a GSM service provider then look at the Audiovox SMT5600. You may also want to looks at the SonyEricsson S710. If you can get an UNLOCKED GSM phone, then you have even more options. Be sure to get a GSM phone that supports both 850 and 1900, since in the US most are using 850 now.

My parents told me that I could only get a phone that was covered under their carrier, Cellular One.
