BlackBerry Curve 8520 (T-Mobile)
Research in Motion apparently has decided the best way to conquer the smartphone market is to put their well-known OS into a dizzying array of different bodies. That's fine with me, because many of them turn out excellent- Flip and Storm aside.
Pros:
- Sleek form factor and accurate trackpad are genuine improvements

Cons:
- Very weak reception
- Still no 3G or GPS
