I recommend the Blackberry Storm based soley on it's offered features. With issues such as sluggish programs, tight keypad and other bugs to fix, this phone will be at it's potential once the kinks are worked out.
Pros Sleek design, many features, touchscreen.
Cons Sluggish and slow, touchscreen is a bit small and patience is need.

Oh Lord! Honey, my neighbor Flora came to my house yesterday, at dinner time as usual...free-loader, and pulled out this hot looking phone-I thought it was a new Bingo player. We sat there playing with this thing like it was a new hip on a hot day! This phone had so many features it was confusing, but what I didn't like was having to go around my elbow to get to my @#$! WHEW! I was exhausted by the time we were done child that I forgot about taking my Glaucoma medicine.

Now, normally I like shiny nice phones with cameras, GPS(or Gypsies as I call them), MP3-for my disco, Wi-Fi, and such... especially when the serial number is scratched off, but this phone was just plain tiring. AND, with all that playing around, the raggedy battery just got tired and died on me! Child, I was expecting a resurrection or something, but I guess that's just something Jesus be doing... AMEN!

So, if you like a raggedy battery, a camera to take pics of your Glaucoma medicine garden, and all the other stuff crammed into that little thing like pigs under a blanket, then you got yourself a damn good phone.

Pros Mp3 player played my Solid Gold disco, the camera took good bright green pics of my garden out back, and the Gypsies-oops, GPS-was good too... helped me find my way around the cold-cream isle at the store.
Cons Ol' raggedy battery.

I don't understand why BlackBerry's are so popular. They are just confusing to me. I bought this one thinking it would help me stay organized but it was so difficult to figure out I took it back.

Pros Cool Touchscreen
Cons Extremely complicated
