Looking for advice

Hello all you mobile phone pros,

I'm looking to buy a phone and I'd like the following features:

- Windows Mobile (outlook, ssh, VoIP softphone, etc.)
- Wifi
- qwerty keyboard (decent size)
- Bluetooth
- Quad band
- Better than average reception if possible
- Good call quality

I assume all phones come with GPRS nowadays right? (I will be able to ssh using GPRS when not in a wifi zone right?)

I don't care so much about cameras, mp3s, etc. as this phone will mostly be for business purposes.

I'm sure there are tons of phones out there so if you guys could suggest good quality phones with better than average reception and good battery life, that would be great.

Thanks!
 
Unlocked Cingular 8125 (HTC Wizard Variant) are nicely priced used:

for something newer, HTC TyTN (Cingular 8525, not sure of unlockable status though):

Another interesting look, HTC S710:

Turns out I have a friend who bought a used HTC Wizard off ebay 2 months ago and he's going to give it to me. He says I just need to re-install the bootrom and firmware and add software (he doesn't have time to do it himself).

So looks like I'll be going with your first suggestion

Thanks for the advice.
