I also have Verizon and love it. My dad has been through AT&T, Nextel, Cingular, and now Verizon. And he even admits that Verizon is better than all the other carriers. I just bought the new Samsung Camera phone. Verizon had them on sale about a month ago and I got one for $50 US. Then we got another free phone. I love the Samsungs. But when it comes to cell phones, it's kind of like filters. It's all a matter of choice when it comes to brands. Most are great and everyone picks their fav. Motorola is a great phone, but was not as easy to use as the Samsung.
