Needing some advice

[not1ofthepack]

The background story. I love HTC, I was with palm for a while but found HTC to be more of what I was looking for. Now, I have had the HTC pro both alltel and verizon versions, and stuck with alltel. Even though my area has been taken over with verizon. Over the past 8 months I have gone though 3 touch pro, where the keyboard stops working. I just got a new one and the keyboard stop working in just 2 weeks. So I have had enough, and I'm asking for help what other type of phone should I be looking it to make my next one? I am not hard on my phone, rarely dropping them always in a case.

I would like a keyboard,internet and gps enable so that I can find address easy in the city, with out having to buy a "gps plan". Oh, and it would be nice to get picture text messages if possible too.

Thank you for your input, I live in a very technology challenged area, so I don't have very many friends that I can as in person. All the sales people are just plain snakes that will say anything to make a sale and then say "oo sorry I was mistaken".

Again I'm on verizon.
