Default cell phone

What's a good cell phone to get now-a-day's? I talk, text, and take pictures. I kinda want one to get myself a little more organized too, but don't see the point of the extra $30 a month for the email packages. I have verizon by the way. thanks

I'm on the storm right now. Handy but brittle. I'm having issues with it freezing up. All in all I'm not too stoked with it.

Thanks guys. I forgot to mention; I need one that is more tougher than average since I'm a carpenter.

My 2nd Gen Boulder is TOUGH. Ive dropped it 50 times, been in lake water for over 35 mins and keeps on ticking.
