I keep looking at the HTC Hero, but I expect I'll get a Blackberry Storm 2 next.

I hear good things about both... I've gotten a s**tty phone while I'm over her, once back properly in the UK I'm going to high-tech it up.

Sometimes I love my BlackBerry, and sometimes I could throw it against a brick wall.  It's brilliant for emails, calendar, etc, but touchscreen typing can be extremely frustrating, and it's quite unforgiving if you make a mistake.  That said, I'd still choose it over an iPhone.  :)
