The VZW treo's that we have at work are slow and horrible for synching. As are the HTC6800's (nowhere near as bad as the Treo's). I am the only person in the office using a BB and I love it....even though I paid for it out of my own pocket, it works well, never freezes and tethers easily.My wife has a HTC6800 (alltel) and I'm 99% sure will go the BB route in the future as this is/was our 3rd WM based phone and all have left us severely disappointed.
There are a bunch of different versions of Treos. Some have hardly any memory(700w), its like 64mb versus 128mb for the 700wx. I've never had problems with syncing, and even use IR syncing with ease. I am not a fan of the 6800 either, Chuck.
As far as size goes, it is a bit thick(thats what she said). Anyway, I have decent sized hands, and it fits well. It's extremely sturdy, and has taken a beating and has hardly any scars on it. I had an XV6600 awhile ago, and I had 3 of those because of broken screens/case, etc in about 6 months. I've owned one Treo for a year and a half. Longest I've owned a single phone so far. Best part about them, you can get them on ebay for around $100. Oh and it does have a full size SD card slot(and with WM6.1 update you can use the SDHC cards, 4+gb).

I have the Samsung Omnia and I love it, it's a great phone. The Blackberry Storm is a cool phone but I hate the clicking screen.
the only thing I'd want more is an iPhone but AT&T sucks in Bemidji and surrounding areas.

Double True.
Best phone you can get right now with what you REALISTICALLY will be doing, and the 'Blackberry Plan' is not that bad of a deal at all.
Get the Curve. I wish I wouldn't have bought my Voyager when it first came out and would have just got the Curve.

Oh man, the omnia sounds like a good idea, but I've heard only bad things, and can't get over the idea of using a touchscreen keyboard.

I've owned WM devices, Treos, and Blackberries, and nothing even compares. Especially when you use blackberry enterprise server. My storm is absolutely an amazing phone now....

I've seen quite a few track balls quit working/ fall out on the Blackberries, went with a HTC much like this one because of the screen quality and completely satisfied.
It also found it's way into a mug of beer when it was about a week old, 5 months ago and still working.

There are some major points being missed so far... as in do you want a PDA Phone or a Smartphone, there is a pretty big distinction between the two.
It sounds from the description of a palm being too bulky you want a thin, non pda phone...
My favorite Smartphone, has to have been my Q... although I missed the functionality of a PDA phone....
I currently have the Samsung Omnia, but have had the i760 and the i730 previously...
The i760 was my favorite phone, I miss the slide out keyboard.
It really all depends on what you are going to do with the phone, I use quite a few of the features that a Windows Mobile phone can offer over a blackberry (remote desktop connection, wmwifirouter, easy outlook syncing).
WiFi, Bluetooth, EVDO, Fast processors, Expandable Storage, EXTENSIVE list of 3rd party apps.
If your just going to text, occasionally browse the web and read your email, then any smart phone will do. If you need the enterprise push email features, blackberry is the way to go; Like I said before, depending on what your needs are, there is a "right" smartphone for you....

WM? Fuck that...who the hell needs to access Excel on their phone?<----this guy uses it quite often. As well as PDF Viewer, Word, and various other programs.\
Jim, how does the Omnia work? It sounded so promising on paper, but I haven't heard that many good things about it. I always liked the i760 as well, but have never used one.

The one I bought is a HTC Diamond,

Love the touch screen, one touch to read email, two touches to send email.
Edit: I don't think you can play teeter on any Blackberry either:icon_geek:

Ive got my voyager, and hate it.
My BB that i was given for work. its a 8700c, and it sucks as well. We got to test out the Bolds for a little bit, and they are ok, we didnt get to use the full function of them though. the camera, phone, video, and a few other functions were removed by security policy.
