Default T-Mobile G1 (google phone)

So I picked up this phone on Friday and I really like. I was looking at either this(G1) or the Behold if I stayed with t-mobile. Or even the blackberry storm or iphone if I switched service provider.

After looking at and playing around with all the phones I realized that I didn't like the fact that I wouldn't have a keyboard. I like the touch screen and everything, but I just didn't like how easy it was to make mistakes.

My question is of the 4 phones I spoke of which one do you like?

I own a blackberry (not the storm) and i have sold and used a few iphones....i much prefer the blackberry. I find it much more robust and i prefer the navigation etc. However the iphone i personally feel is more multimedia oriented although the storm will probably level the difference between the iphone and the older blackberry i still vote for the Berry!

iphone = overpriced plan but awesome phone and support, "average" battery life

behold = no wifi, no true web browswer, no app's, no internal memory

g1 = ugly as ---- and "glitchy" when i used it (slow processor or to demanding of an OS), shitty battery time, no internal memory (micro sd only)

storm = teh new hotness. havent had a chance to play with this phone, but from all reviews I have seen, its on par with the iphone and since its a blackberry, you cant really go wrong with the support because it will be there.

Iphone= paper weight if battery dies, which it will.
Behold= Over price worth less phone.
G1= soild phone, just kinda big.
Storm= The best phone to come out in a long time.

BTW I sell phones for a living and have play a LOT with all 4, Storm> all us phones at this point.

Oh yeah question for the other G1 people on here. I'm having a hard time sending music to my phone from my desktop(7 year old Dell CRAP). I did the whole mount the drive and everything on the phone, but windows media keeps saying it can't find the file. Should I not be using windows media player to sync the music?

Also G1 has multiple window web browsing which is incredible!
