I am probably going to be getting a new cellphone/PDA over the next week or so and need some input.
I currently use a Treo 600 and have used a Palm device for several generations going back to Palm III devices. I have also used both the original blackberry and one of the newer blue tinted models that are being offered for $150 by Rogers.
If anyone has an opinion on a specific Blackberry model or PDA/Cell that they can give, I would really appreciate it. My main concern is that I hear the sound quality on the blackberry’s is not up to snuff.
I would appreciate feedback in the comments below.

Are you stuck with Rogers? If you can move, try having a look at Telus or a regional CDMA cell provider if you have one. The UT Starcom 6700 is a nice unit, a decent-sized keyboard slides out for typing, and it has high speed (EVDO on Telus, comparable to Roger’s EDGE service) available, as well as built-in WiFi so that you don’t have to waste your data.

i’m not stuck on rogers, but i have had the same cell number for 7 years and would like to keep it. If I do switch providers I would forward my phone and downgrade my rogers plan until the deregulation of phone numbers happens in a year or two.
I took a peek at the UT Starcom phone. It looks hot.
I also heard a rumour that RIM/ROGERs would be revealing a new blackberry with a camera and mp3, video, etc very soon, in fact maybe in days.
