Ok, here's the deal...

I have a Motorola V555 and it's been a great phone. Lately, the battery has been lasting shorter and shorter and the charger/charging connection is on the fritz. It tells me "Unable to Charge" a buncha times and then finally if I keep plugging it in, it eventually charges. Well, I've just come up for new equipment since my contract is up May 07. My choices are pretty shitty! I can get a Razr V3 (the original one, not one of the newer ones) for $79.99 or a Nokia 6103 for $29.99. Neither of them really catch my eye for some reason. I mean, the Razr is basically the same OS and features as my V555, and the nokia seems pretty entry level, actually, it seems a step down from my current phone. I don't really seem to want either of these, and my other choices are even worse (go to CellularOne.com and type in a zipcode of 44446 to see what I mean). But in a few months when I go for a new contract, will there be anything better? If I found another Motorola or something GSM, could my provider actually order it? Could you recommend something that's a step up from the V555 but is greater than or equal to the $80 dollar tag on the V3? Even in a few months, I couldnt spring for a 150-200 dollar phone. So I dunno what to do. Help me out!

wow, those are rough choices. the only other option would be checking out a place like ebay for other GSM phones that fit your price range.
