I know there's a new thread about this every month or so, but until they stop coming out with new phones, they are somewhat necessary...

I'm about to get rid of my Palm Treo 700w. It was alright for HBD, but not great.

I can get a really great deal on a Blackberry, and I was wondering which model anyone might recommend... I'm not terribly familiar with the details of each, but I know there are slight differences.

Of course, if you think the BB platform is a POS for HBD purposes, I'd be happy to hear that, too... might save me a mistake, as while the Treo wasn't idea, it was passable for roadtrips and the like.

How have you found it, sergei?

...and don't say "mostly by looking for it".

I love the tour, but it doesn't handle drop downs.

Had the Storm for a week and hated it so much I got rid of it before I ever tried HBD.

Is there any way around the drop down thing?

They're kind of common in HBD....

Use a laptop for HBD.

You're welcome.

The Tour works OK for WIS... the key is to turn on javascript. If js is turned off, the dropdowns and hover menus don't work.. but turn it on and its fine.

Its slow... but it has worked for me in a pinch.

I just upgraded my phone to the Tour about 20 minutes ago. Good to know.

I have the storm as well. It's ok. Can do most of the same things you can do on your cpu...just SLOW.

iain, doesn't seem like you're considering it, but HBD works nice on the iPhone too. so does pornhub.
