I'd go for a BlackBerry Storm 2. I've been hearing it is absolutely amazing. They fixed every problem that arose with the first generation Storm. It's not too corporate, and it's definitely not girly so it fits your checklist haha. The only problem is that it's still a CDMA phone and won't work with the new HSPA network, but don't worry the CDMA network will still be around for at least another 5 years and by that time I'm sure you'll have a new phone.

I want something that helps me with my hectic life. do u think the new chocolate is too girly? the blackberry too corporate-like? i would set it up with my work email, but that isn't an absolute need.
please don't recommend other phones- I've already decided that it will be one of these 2

Neither, get the Droid. It does EVERYTHING!
I absolutely love it. It has built in GPS. Thousands of aps to download and it has e-mail alerts. I mean I can't really type how amazing it is. I just bought it 2 weeks ago. I have no complaints. The battery lasts a very long time.

The only flaw, I think, is the enter button on the keyboard. I don't like that it is gold.

Blackberry Bold 9700 - as more people have Blackberries and it is an amazing way to help organize your life.

EricK, you've obviously done some research in order to bring it down to these two devices. I think that the Berry is your best choice given the fact that LG has a history of software glitches and flimsy handsets.
