I went from a Motorola RAZR V3m to a Moto Q9c and then the Touch Pro. I find with a reasonable amount of usage I can get through a day on battery (Ive flashed my ROM, so maybe thats to do with it.) But the sheer amount of fun I have with the device far offsets any sort of issue I have with battery life. I agree with Wingzfan on the differences between the three phones. In addition, if you are looking for a device with low frustration and high fun, WinMo is DEF the way to go. Easy to use (IMHO, blackberries are a pain in my tail), TONS of free apps, and the ability to flash different ROM images are a great plus to having one of these devices. My only latent issue with the Pro is signal reception. I live in the boondocks, and sometimes its hard to get service. But even my Motorola struggled a bit, if that gives you any idea of how far our I live. Keep in mind there IS a learning curve, it took me about 2 weeks of steady fiddling before I learned where everything was, and to this day Im still finding cool features.

You wouldn't be wrong gonig with a Pro, and Verizon does give you 30 days, so it's practically risk free if you dont destroy the phone! Good luck, and if you decide to go with a Pro, come back to the forums for some cool apps and great support.
