I resisted the 80's and 90's cell phone trend, and even skipped the turn of the century crackberry bandwagon. But finally there is a device that might just nicely solve a few 'problems' I have.

My land line sucks (well, actually, it hisses, crackles and pops). After 3 years of trying I have given up on Bell.

I need an emergency cell, I want and MP3 player and it would be really nice to be able to remotely control Media Monkey from anywhere in my apartment (I was looking at an Archos for this originally).

So, has anybody had experience with both an android 2.2 and 2.3 device. Is there anything the newer devices like the Nexus S has over a previous gen device like the LG Optimus One that makes it worth an extra 2 bills?

I'm looking at Koodo's 'Canada Wide' service as it is contract free, and for about the cost of a land line plus emergency cell, will probably give me all the air time I need. It also helps that they will knock $100 - 150 off the cost of a phone for a new activation.
