One thing you might want to think about is whether you want a radio that allows you to monitor two frequencies at the same time, such as the Yaesu FT-8800. It's a dual band radio (2M and 70cm), and has a removable head. The dual receive capability might be useful in some situations.

Yeah, I was looking at the 8800 as well (and the 8900 as well). Looks like the big difference between the 8800 and 8900 as far as my needs go is APRS, not sure that's something I'll develop a hankering for or not. But I can certainly see how dual band would be useful, and I notice that other companies make dual band radios as well.
Hmm..
