"Don't believe the hype"
What I like:
Quality feel, great screen, good sound
What I don't like:
email setup was awkward, no wifi, poor battery life
Review:
Blackberry is supposed to the boss for email. This took too long to set up as no-one at Vodafone let me know I had to register fro account first! The click screen is novel but as reviewer says will fill the edge gap with dirt over time. Like my wifes iphone, my finger hits the key next to the one I want to hit, so it takes some learning, as does the click screen as first reaction is not to push hard and no action is the result. Now set up it feels ok and email works well but the double tap keyboard does not work for me and it feels generally slow so I am going back to my E90 for it's keyboard and forego the music.

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
