Personally, I use an iPhone, but before that used the Nokia e61i which I thought was awesome. The HTC is pretty close to the Nokia which seems like a decent phone, but I've never used one.

Blackberry seems pretty decent, but I've never been a big fan. I won't be using the blackberry mail system, already have an exchange server that works well with what we have now, but anyone know if you need to buy the blackberry mail package to use exchange? One Verizon guy said yes, and went to another store today and someone else said no.

Any thoughts?
