As a followup, this is what I ended up doing. My plan is indeed unchanged
as confirmed by the PRL. The v325 is certainly much, much nicer
usability-wise, though the old StarTac had a lot more character.

Many thanks to all those in this group who helped me!

The V325 is even nicer once you modify it to allow vibrate then ring,
and to allow Motorola Phone Tools to be fully functional.

What extra features do you get, and how can I get these tools?

I'm not that crazy about the V325, but since I have one (three, if you
count the wife and step daughter on the family plan), I'd like to
"unlock" the phone and get the most out of it.

MPT is a software package like Susteen Datapilot and it's available from
Motorola or other retailers.
