I've had BB employees admit to me that Monster is overrated. I've been pushed more towards Dynex than Monster. Of course, Dynex is still big-time expensive when compared to the Internet, but it's cheaper than Monster. What choice do they have, really? Either recommend Dynex or recommend the Internet. If their manager is nearby, you know damned well they're not going to recommend the Internet. To their credit though, when I've mentioned eBay for cabling I've never received resistance beyond, "That's true if you're willing to wait or pay for expedited shipping." So, even they admit that it's a convenience factor.
I don't know what stores most people seem to frequent, but the three that I go to in Pennsylvania and Maryland regularly seem to have respectable people working for them.

The phone has 256MB of RAM and a 1GHz processor, which do the job reasonably well, though the Anna interface will likely leave something to be desired for many smartphone users.
