Well... if I were choosing and aside from the trackpad vs. trackball, my choice would be the 8900. Just because that is what I was choose, doesn't mean it should be your choice. Things to consider:

Trackball vs. Trackpad
Network (Tour is only on Sprint/Verizon in the US)
Features (I have the Tour, had the 8900 and miss the heck out of wifi)
Price
Keyboard (try them out and see which one you'd feel more comfortable typing on)

thanks Duvi!
my friend said maybe try 8520?
because cheaper.....
make me confuse so i try asking here

[Duvi]

The 8520 isn't a bad device either. That's why you have to choose from your needs/wants.

Here is a comparison chart:


Things I noticed off the bat were:

• Weight (Tour is the heaviest)
• Wifi (8900 and 8520)
• GPS (8900 and Tour)
• Avg. user rating (8900 has a higher one)
• Camera (8520 is the only one with less than 3MPs)
