Dr. K- do you have a need to carry a pager at all? do you use an alpha-numeric pager? [remember, as a surgeon in solo practice I will live and die by lack of connectivity on demand].
Anyone else using PUSH and SMS instead of antiquated pager devices?
the other issue I am having is that other than 1 person I know, everyone (literally everyone I talk to) uses Cingular. and, i don't want to carry two cell phones), so....

I've had my 700p for a couple of weeks and my main reason for upgrading was PUSH email and wireless syncing of my calendar. I had been carrying around a cell phone and a palm device for years and I wanted to combine them into one device. I also really liked the idea of automatic wireless syncing which would mean I would no longer have to worry about whether my info was up to date.
I had never used SMS before getting the 700p, but based on my brief experience, there is very little delay between the time someone sends me a message and the time I receive it. I used this feature quite a bit during a recent conference to communicate with a couple of colleagues (one had a 700p, the other had a Moto E815) while we were attending different seminars.
What issues are you having with Verizon? I've been using Verizon for years and I'm very happy with them.
