Re: need advice

personally I don't like blackberrys...the interface is definately cluttered and I think trackballs are incredibly aggravating.
Windows mobile is great, and you can even customize it be alot easier to use than a BB, the possibilities really are endless with it..
I had the touch pro, im currently moving over to a treo pro instead, just cause I prefer the form factor.
If you have to pick between the two, the touch pro is more powerful (2x more ram) but i've heard that the treo pro seems to be alot more stable.
For media the touch pro is great..you get a decently large VGA screen and the video quality is incredible.
I had alot of problems with my touch pro though..the keyboard wasn't very reliable (lots of lag) and I've had it replaced twice so far but the same issues keep coming up, though not everybody seems to encounter them.
If you're into the whole touch screen thing, go for the touch pro, it's probably (im my opinion) the best touch screen WinMo phone out there. If hardware buttons and overall stability is more important to you though, the treo is probably a better pick, if you don't mind giving up the extra screen size and higher resolution you get with the touch pro.
A friend of mine visited the UK recently and picked up a Sony Xperia X1 which is literally flawless and beats the touch pro all around, but its gsm only so it won't work with alltell..
