Title says it all really

Important things are RF, Bluetooth, SMS modes, and organizer capabilities. I adjust quickly, so getting used to a new interface isn't a big deal, although I'm pretty good with Nokia already. Camera and picture messaging are important to me as well. Battery life is important too, but just as long as it's better than my 8801 I'm not too worried (see also: 1 hr of talk time after maybe 20 texts in and out per battery).

I'm not really going to use them as an MP3 player or for email (not primarily anyway). I'm just trying to combine 2 devices into one since my PocketPC has seen better days.

Only reason I'd go with the N76 is because the RAZR-like form factor, which I do like, and am pretty used to... From what I understand from reading about it, it's basically a thin version of the N76. Leave the chrome flake argument at the door as I'm already aware of it

Thanks HoFo
 
@TheRupp: BS, N75 Sucks. I would stay away from Symbian all together. Nokia looks to be making some decent strides toward the future. But right now...No to Symbian
 
I'd go with the N75. The N76 was a nice try, but there's issues with the MiniUSB and headset jack placement (they block the flip), so I'd skip it and wait for the next version of that design.
 
Even though I've never used BB before I would definitely go with the pearl. From what I hear the N75/N76 have ridiculous battery lives
 
N75s get perfectly decent battery life once they're broken in. That takes about a week or so; most of the people reporting battery issues did so in the first week, before the break-in period.
