So I'm looking to get a new phone, and wondering what the Org users have to say about the two main types I'm looking at; blackberry and android phones.

I'm looking for something that would, ideally, have good (for a phone) picture, video, and voice recording features, along with web access and the ability to download apps. I also want something I can use a true VOIP service on.

Right now the blackberry bold 9700 is at the top of my list. But I'm not that sure how the newest android and blackberry phones are differentiated (except by OS). Any information you'd care to share would be much appreciated. I've mainly been getting info from cnet.com so far, so if you know a good tech/mobile blog please tell me.

For service providers, I want something without a contract and cheap - which means Virgin Mobile or T-Mobile in the US, I think. Both those offer plans for web access, texting, and limited (but plenty for me) talking time. I'm aware that means I'll have to buy the phone at full price.
