I need a phone that runs Windows Mobile 5 pocket pc edition. Smartphone edition does not work with software I need to run. I'm on AT&T(formerly Cingular) but willing to switch to T-Mo. Trying to stay away from CDMA phones. I'm aware of Cingy's 8525, Treo 750, and T-Mo's MDA. Are there other phones I should be considering. I'm ok with purchasing unlocked phones. Any website or reivew that compares Pocket PC phones? For those of you who've gone through this process, what phone did you buy and why?

WiFi is an important feature. I don't have 3G in my area yet but hopefully later this year. I can live with EDGE for now. I definitely need a QWERTY keyboard. I'll be using it mostly to run my work software, calender, organizer, e-mails. Surfing/camera/music is nice but not absolutely needed. Oh, I need a phone with good RF and call quality too. Is that too much to ask?
 
Pocketpcthoughts.com is a good site, so is mobiletechreview.com. I would suggest trying the HTC p4350. It is a great pocketpc with a form factor similar to the 8525, but thiner (it is missing 3g but you said you dont need that) also consider the treo 750. you can use any of those with cingular. I have had an MDA and an 8525. I love both of them. A good choice is the MDA as well. It is a fantastic device, but if you have money to spend get the 4350 it is like a thin MDA on steroids.
