I am going to high school next year, and so it looks like my parents will be getting me a cellphone. this cellphone will be on AT&T or Verizon. what would you guys reccomend? i would prefer something that isn't obsenely expensive that runs android 2.1

Droid.

Nexus One if physical keyboards aren't your thing.

Something with a physical keyboard.. I prefer WM powered phones.

Droid for sure. It doesn't run on 2.1 yet but it will be soon. Only thing to run on android 2.1 currently is the nexus one i think.

Droid - Physical Keyboard
Nexus 1 - Free, no physical keyboard

They're pretty much the same besides that

As a DROID owner I love it. I have used all sorts of phones from WM devices to blackberrys. My DROID is the best by far.

which one would be best for modification.

The Droid is great and it's about 10 time better with a modded ROM on it, it will seriously amaze you with the stuff the ROM developers do. It looks cooler, it's significantly faster and even does more. Motorola underclocked the Droid from 600mhz to 550mhz but I made up for it by setting it to 900mhz where it is 110% stable. I could go high but there's no need to.

I've got my eyes set on the Backflip. If your getting a smartphone either way.. it looks like its capable of pretty much whatever you want it to do.

thats *if* you go the at&t route.

just heard about the htc evo 4g. it looks a lot like an improved hd2 running android. i will probably end up on sprint just for that

any opinions on the evo 4g? thanks
