Personally, I would choose the HTC Touch Pro 2 over the Blackberry Storm. First of all I've had experience with HTC and Blackberry and I am in favor with HTC.

As for looks I think the HTC looks a lot more slick and functional than the Blackberry Storm.

Most people have told me that the Blackberry Storm does not function as well as a Blackberry 8800 so I wouldn't have gone with the Storm as an option for a Blackberry anyway.

The Blackberry functions mainly as an e-mail phone and if you do not need such extensive e-mailing structure then the HTC will serve you better.

The HTC Fuze and G1 are cool too. The Fuze is much thinner than both phones and is very slick, but the browsing screen is smaller.

Got to play with a Touch Pro 2. I'm waiting for it to come out. The screen not only slides away from the keyboard, it also tilts up. I liked the keyboard because the keys are raised a bit more than the G1. It has the conference call feature which is supposed to have excellent voice quality. It all depends on if you like Window's mobile.

Personally, I'm not thrilled with Blackberrys (don't like the keyboard) but I know a lot of people who swear by them.
