Searching for new verizon ppc, where to turn?

[Supermanwoot]

Ok guys, ive been driving myself crazy for the past couple weeks figuring out what to do as far as phones go. My ppc-6700 (apache) is just not satisfying me anymore and it is obviously an old platform that, although proven, has just worn out its stay for me. It is sluggish and I hate having to reflash it all the time just to get decent performance for a little bit, although it isnt too difficult with sync and SD card to reinstall apps from quickly.

However, the bulkiness, terrible battery life, and instability are really troubling me. I am on verizon and I feel like my choices are terrible.

I love the interface and touch screen and I have it customized to my liking as far as contacts, calendar, home screen w/ phone alarm goes.

I am also a pharmacist and am trying to run a reliable drug information program from my phone. Just yesterday I called the makers of LexiComp (the best Rx PDA software) and they told me the only phone that ran their complete software suite very well (p***** their approval) was the new treo 800w. This surprised me but I learned that the phone was ALREADY released for sprint but as usual verizon got shafted EVEN THOUGH its a palm product which verizon seemed to be on top of in the past, but of course when they come out with a really good palm, it goes to sprint first GAH!

So anyway, I use my phone for GPS a lot. I just like the feature to be able to search around where I am for nearby POIs, get basic directions, and find pharmacies addresses/phone numbers when I need to transfer scripts (just an example). With the 6700 i have to use a bluetooth GPS receiver! I don't want to pay for VZ navigator because I don't only use it for navigation and I use it with live search mainly (wayyyy better than GoogleMaps IMO). I would REALLLY like an unlocked GPS which im sure is impossible with verizon but it would be amazing even if hackable that could be used with navizon!

Then I see sprint TV, and I really would love that as well on verizon...

What would you do if you were in my position, wanting a new phone but nothing amazing out right now for verizon?

Cliffs:
Currently have 6700
WM5 is what I have been using, WM6 too slow on 6700
REALLY want built-in GPS instead of using bluetooth
Must run pharmacy software but not usually an issue
- I could buy a cheaper alternative to Lexicomp and run it ok
- As long as PPC doesnt slow down during use its fine (need it quick)
HELP ME FIND A NEW PHONE OR WAIT FOR ONE!

Waiting for the new diamond (August I think) would be your best bet I woild think. but if you can't wait either the titan, or touch are your best options. I would probably suggest the touch for the extra ram, but I know the titan is still a good option. All three of these have been discussed extensively here, search is your friend...
