New Verizon cellphone?

[Judy G. Russell]

My two-year contract with Verizon is about to expire and I'm entitled to trade for a new cellphone. The one I have now (an LG) is good but eats batteries. I don't want bells and whistles -- the features I use are the phone (duh!), the alarm and the silent/vibrate ringer. That's it. Anything beyond that is really kind of overkill. Oh, and I like small.

So... whaddaya recommend?
