Default what phone to buy..

my contract is ending on the 25th with tmobile. ive had a sidekick 3, sidekick lx, tmobile wing, samsung u600, and iphone. The best ive liked so far are the sidekick lx and the iphone. i wish they'd make something with both combined, but hey, its not a perfect world. idk what phone to get now. money's not necessarily an issue cause ill be selling my iphone, but i also dont want to spend $800 on a phone. most ill go is $550. any opinions on what i should get? i can also changed carriers if i feel its worth the extra cash. tmobile is the cheapest of all and the service is bearable. i was looking at either the g1, which ive used and liked, and the nokia n96, though i havent used it or even held one. any other suggestions?

get a crappy phone and wait till the nokia n97 comes out. or go to AT&T and get the AT&T quickfire

AT&T also has that no WinMo phone the HTC Fuze, but ive only heard bad about it.

yea ive had bad experience with win mobile. didnt like it on the wing. only thing i dont like about the n97 is that the screens always tilts up, and it cant open flat. or can it?

Any high end Nokia, don't get blackberry unless you are already very familiar with and like them. I hate blackberrys.

I have to agree with that. Unless you're familiar with the BB, it's not a pleasant phone to use. First time I started using the BB, it took me a long time to find just the plain menu to change some settings.

I'm actually more of a Treo person. What about that new Treo?
