I just got a Centro a few months ago. I really wouldn't recommend it in general, but if you like the PalmOS platform it's an option. > We have Verizon for a carrier and was wondering which Verizon > smartphone everyone likes the best. We've been using BlackBerry here for ages, so that's what we're still using, for the most part. I can say they do work well. RIM put a lot of thought into the user experience, which is more than I can say for Win Mobile (née Win PocketPC née WinCE). Email and contacts are very good. Calendar is good. Wireless sync is good. RIM does hard keyboards very well. The Storm touchscreen, some love it, some hate it. The Word/Excel/PowerPoint equivalents, while not like a desktop, are suitable for handheld use. There are a fair number of third-party apps for the BlackBerry, for things like VPN, remote access, etc. There's a whole suite of stuff from RIM for gatewaying your business apps to a handheld; don't know much about it beyond that it exists. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
