Upgrade Suggestions???

Hi Everyone,

After a year of frustration with my HTC Touch Pro 2 (primarily due to MS abandoning Windows Mobile, after they said they wouldn't ), Verizon is allowing me to upgrade on Feb 9th. My initial thought, is that I should grab the new iPhone 4, since it becomes avaialble on 10 Feb, but was wondering what other's people's opinions were on this subject. I really loved my TP2 up until last summer, as that was when apps started dropping off the face of the planet, and everythign was going to the iPhone and Android platforms.

What I want in a Smart Phone:

Great call quality (for some reason my TP2 doesn't have this, but it dd when I was living in Colorado?)
App avaliability (this is what my TP2 lacks)
Hardware keyboard (if it is good enough, a software keyboard would work, I understand the keyboard on the iPhone is quite good)
Outlook Contact Syncing (or a seemless work-around, such as using iTunes with the iPhone)
Good build quality
Plenty of storage space (at least 8 GBs, or upgradeable storage)

What current smartphones meet this requirements (in your humble opinions )?

I understand some of the Droid phones are pretty good, but some (such as the original Droid) did not sync with Outlook without jumping through hoops, or requireing me moving my personal contacts to the cloud.

Thanks in advance for your opinions!

Rich S.
