Treo 680 or Samsung Blackjack

Looking for my first venture into the Smartphone world. I have held a treo 700 and the demo blackjack, and I like the size of the blackjack better. The keys on both are comparable (small) but I can deal with them.

Pros of the Blackjack I like are: better camera (2mp), 3G, smaller size
Pros of Treo: touchscreen is attractive, good beginner smartphone

Best case: I get either one and love it OR I get either one and trade it for N75 when (if) it comes out.

Worst case: I get either one and hate them and go back to my current phone.

Also, I'd like some advice from anyone who has experience with both Palm OS and Windows Mobile OS. That will likely be the biggest deciding factor. Thanks for all the help!
 
My experience with the quality of the Treo and Palm software has not been good. I went through 3 Treo 600s and a 650 before moving to a BB 8700. I am now using the Samsung Blackjack (Windows Mobile). The Palm software is a bit outdated, however there are many add on programs which can be used with it. The SmartPhone has the latest Windows OS but it is a SmartPhone and not a PPC so it lacks some features such as cut and paste and the ability to edit word and excel documents.

I suggest you take a look at the Smartphone forum under the Cingular section. That shoudl give you some insight into the Blackjack.
