Any of you guys recomend anything, mainly I was looking at the Treo 750 and Cingular Blackjack which I liked even though battery life is a little low.

My main things are:
Fax capable for my business
Able to edit/customize programs with Windows Mobile or just be flexible
High Speed Network/Internet service
Good quality and phone service, I had a Blackberry last year and it sucked for reception and was always dropping calls.

So shoot off any others you'd look into or own, theres so many and I'm not a phone tech guru like some are obsessed with lol, I have a friend who gets a phone like every 3 months just to try something out then get board with it.

im an avid smartphone user. Look at the Cingular 8225 or 8125. Touchscreen functions, bluetooth, wifi, fax, modem, etc...

FULL SIZED qwerty slide out keyboard. Honestly these are the best way to go. The tony bunched up keyboards produce spelling errors like no other. GO to a store and look at the Cingular 9125 / 8225 / Spring MDA.

Since ATT rebought out Cingular, I never lose signal. Ever.

I have the Treo 650 and like it alot. If you plan to start a new plan, check out MyTreo.net. They'll giving 680s for free with a 2yr contract!

Stay away from the Sprint 6700 PPC and it's Verizon counterpart. That's my opinion. I have it and it is a terrible phone and a not so good PDA. I have to reset it multiple times a day. The design is great, but poor execution.

i have a treo 650 with palm. i suggest getting the 700 with windows. my friend has one and its pretty sweet, way better than the palm os.

the treos have amazing battery life, ive been over 5 days without a charge and had it last for me before, a few times actually. unfortunately, we are switching to spritn hybrid, so no more treo =(.

May I suggest Howard Forums? HowardForums: Your Mobile Phone Community & Resource

It's the best resource for anything mobile phone related. They have specific smartphone forums... or PDA phone forums

I've been there for about three years now, pretty good group of people. But yea, its a huge forum so you should be able to find the info you're looking for.

Otherwise some good phone review sites are

infoSync - Reporting from the digital frontier

HowardChui.com: Batteries included

and yea... those are two that are off the top of my head, hope that helps
