"Best thing ever"
What I like:
It's sleek user interface, it's beautiful body design.
What I don't like:
A bit on the chunky side.
Review:
I find it odd that the 6500 Classic had a better review from the editors than did the Slide. Funny, most other reviewers find this phone hands down better--and this user would enthusiastically concur.
It's a bit chunky, yes, but that a bad handset does not make. I chose this phone over the Apple iPhone, the Classic and the N95 8 GB because it combined some of the best features of each, and put them in a simple, yet elegant, handset. (I even paid more than I would have for the iPhone, but I digress.)
I use its radio headset often, the TV plug is great, the music player is easy to use (I also have an iPod Classic, but the phone is my back-up player), the camera is pretty darn good...and the design! It's a beautiful phone to look at.

BlackBerry Storm 2
Clicking touchscreen may be useful for clumsy people, but ditching the Qwerty keyboard has its drawbacks
INQ Mini 3G
Sluggish at times, and not the easiest phone to use, but it offers a great range of features at a low price
BlackBerry Bold 9700
Has everything that makes the BlackBerry format great, but other smart phones offer more innovation
