Don, seriously... I did not expect to keep the Blackberry. I told myself I would try it out for a few days. I thought no touchscreen was a deal breaker. Guess what? With the trackball, you don't need it!!!
In some respects without the touchscreen makes it much easier to navigate the screens. Even with games, the trackball makes the play better than a touchscreen. ;-) I challenge anyone that has some time to play around with a Blackberry to try it. With AT&T you have 30 days to take it back for a refund. I highly recommend the 8820 which has GPS and WiFi built-in.

Speaking in generalities, here's how the big three stack up: Palm - PDA that evolved into an excellent phone and email device Blackberry - email device that evolved into an excellent phone and good PDA WM6 - a mish-mash of everything, none of which it does very well. :-) But seriously folks, generally/historically if you want solid PDA/phone you get Palm, email/phone you get blackberry, and if you're out of your mind you get WM6. OK, maybe only sort of seriously. I think I heard Roger got a Blackberry and might be happy with it. Even though I don't miss graffiti with the Treo's keyboard, I would VERY MUCH miss the touch screen if I went to a BB. If PalmOS went away altogether, I'd get a Blackberry.

How do you like the Blackberry as a PDA though? I was shying away from it for that reason (I will not be using email).
