I'm on a Verizon Plan, and looking to upgrade my phone. In my line of work, I'm on the move constantly. I'd like to be able to stay in touch with my Hotmail account, plus my office email account and my home email account. All three are web based, so that helps.

I also am on the road often, and it'd be nice to access mapquest, as well as my on-line banking. Read the news, check GTP, ban people on GTP, and check the weather reports.

Interacting with a printer/fax machine 'd be nice, but not a drawback if unable.

I'm close to purchasing it and the cost doesn't scare me. Here's what I've come down to, and am looking for any feedback any of you might be able to provide.

Thoughts, suggestions or something else?
 
Palm Treos would suit you down to the ground. The Palm OS can't be faulted, and the hardware will probably be better than most Windows mobile stuff. Not only that, but Windows Mobile tends to be horribly complicated for doing relatively uncomplicated processes.

Take a look at Palm.com - I know very little about the different treos available, but I've heard good things and I've been very happy with my Palm PDAs.
 
Thanks for the replies on this, guys. I checked out the palm and the blackberry. In terms of what I needed it for, the Q worked out to a Great deal.

In fact, that's what I'm typing this on.
