Help picking a smart phone

[Mr. Fact]

hey folks,

im looking for replacement for my Blackberry 7100r. it will be used for voice only with Fido.

things i need:
-reliable phone with decent battery
-be able to sync/backup/restore my 200+ contacts with outlook 2007 and iMail on Mac in future
-USB connectivity
-Tri or quad band for Europe (i do travel)

things i want:
-SureType or full qwerty keyboard
-fully functional Bluetooth (OBEX, Serial..)
-MP3, and other audio formats
-WiFi
-expandable memory
-Infrared port
-be able to connect laptop to the phone and use gprs for internet (Bluetooth or USB)

things i don't care about:
-camera
-Divx, and other video
-Edge or other high speed networks

at the moment i am considering SE M600i, Blackberry 8700 and Blackberry 8100 Pearl. Personally I like the Pearl but i find the battery a little weak for me . Expensive unlocking and lack or some features make me hesitate.

I would appreciate your input and any suggestions for my dilemma.

Have you considered the T-mobile Dash?

Have you looked at some of these? 8125, 8525, S620/Dash, N80?

Otherwise, check out the phone finder function at Phonescoop to help you out.
