If you want to stay with Sprint then go for Palm Pre, got both touchscreen as well as full keypad (though its slide out).

Depends on how you use your phone. It applies to all "smart" phones. If you configure it for emails then you will end up charging it everyday, if you also listen to music/videos/browser internet then keep a charger with you :-)

Thanks! Yea, I was thinking of getting the Palm Pre. But do you know if it's better than the Centro or the Treo Pro? And what about HTC phones? How are they? lol, sorry for all the questions...I just want to get a good phone..

Sapphirez good thing is that N97 charges from PC as well. So for example if you are loading songs and stuff it will keep on charging etc. I love this facility for my phone and carry the pc to mobile cable everywhere with me. I just keep phone connected all the time so it charges.

It does have good performance for data and voice, takes sharp pictures, plays videos/music. It doesn't record a video however, I believe that is true for iPhone as well.

Centro is compact, small screen, Treo Pro is Windows based. Pro looks 'cool' compared to Centro, but Pre is coolest :-)

As for HTC phones, I haven't used any so I can't comment.

^ Mini does not have that cursor button, is smaller (hence the name) and doesnt have the protective camera slider. N97 has two major flaws:

i) BAD BAD BAD resistive touch screen
ii) Slow ARM processor (big turn off)
ii) Keyboard key in the wrong place

From the mini's specs, they didnt fix these two issues

Saph, where do you live? Did you take a look at the Nokia E75, now thats a very stable phone... IMO the Blackberry Bold is the best!
