any of the blackberry 7 phones available to you

the bold 9900 is awesome, but camera has no autofocus

the bold 9790 is also awesome, but not too sure when or if your carrier will be getting it

both new curves are cool too, pretty affordable, more entry level

the 2 new torch phones are both really nice too, one is all touch, and the other one is the slider that we're all familiar with, except updated with bb7

all the new phones are slick, i personally love my 9810

If you do a lot of web browsing and texting you have to get the Bold 9900 and the PlayBook. The pb is a must if you do a lot of browsing. It is the right size and the screen is b-e-a-utiful

the best combo, in my mind, is the one i have, a 9810 and a playbook

love the combination - and for web browsing, the playbook is excellent, and os 2 is coming in february - ya, i'd say get a playbook and a 9810 or the bold 9790

You have two choices right now, since you're on Verizon. The Bold 9930, and the Torch 9850
I suggest you go into the Verizon store and play around with both devices, hopefully they're actually working.

If you're looking for BB then hands down the Bold Touch. OS 7 is finally on par with web browsing speeds. Android phones are varied and depend a lot on what you like. I picked up the Droid 3 because it has a good keyboard and gets decent battery life. I like having Flash too, which I didn't think I would before. The iPhone is the iPhone. It is the same as it was before, just updated and faster.
