I am looking to upgrade from the Treo 650 and I am looking for some advice...

When the 700w first came out the windows media turned me off, I could get myself away from the palm OS. Now that the Q has come out there are a few more astetic reasons that push me away from the treo, like the weight of it when i put it in my suit pocket.

My main concerns looking for a new phone are...
-I must stay with Verizon! (unfortunately, great service but they now freedom with their phones)
-the ease the treo has with "outlook" type programs. I do not have a great memory and it has been a savior.
-the treo it has been my favorite phone since the startac.
-i need quick email without buying good link or anything like that, preferably for numerous email accounts.
-internet is nice but not a huge concern. If i was going to use it it better work.
-don't like the bulkiness of the pocket pcs
-wouldn't mind having microsoft office programs to see attachements. I think you can download wiht both.
-reliability. since the star tac motorola has not had the greatest trac record with me.
-great wireless sync. I am not computer savy but i have an idea of what i am doing. I rather not get my IT departmet to set it up wiht my outlook at work.
-decent applications to go with it. I live in NYC, i need something to do on the subways plus if i could get rid of my ipod and just us the phone tha twould be ideal.

I can't think of much else. I really wasnt' in the market for a new phone but since i broke my 650 I figured i should get some advice before running out to buy a new phone.

I appreciate everyones input!!!
 
i'm returning my q. i hate it. i used my brothers 650 for a few minutes and decided to return my 'q' and i'm waiting for my 700p.

the screen, size, and voice quality are literally the only good qualities about the phone. the case, interface, software, internet, everything else, is god awful and it's disturbing to think that the release date was pushed back a year and it still is lack-luster.
