I went for the Motorola Q9h for my personal phone, and I love it the keyboard is awesome, just so easy to text. I did look at the Blackberry and the Nokia N95 but decided that I was going to be getting a Blackberry 8100 for work soon so that came of the list and the N95 well just wasn't sure on the Symbian OS never used it and also what apps were there?
I also did the same read all the reviews I could find and asked some of my contacts Chris Leakness, Mauricio Freitas (geekzone) and contacts at SPB all gave advised me what they thought and I took it on board.
I think I finally made my mind up once I was in the store and got to play with the phone again, as I had already seen it at a Comms Conference I went to (we got a sneak peak and play before it was released here in New Zealand), I found I still liked it.
I posted a pic of my today screen on this thread if you want to have a look
Smartphones... hmmmmm
Cheers
