Which AT&T phone best suits my needs?

I am currently leaning towards the Blackjack but I am open to any other suggestions.

The most important thing for me, besides being able to send and receive calls of course, is internet browsing. I am a college student and I will be using it a lot, in classes and such. So I would like it to be pretty fast. I will use pop3 email, but it doesn't have to be top notch.

The second most important will be streaming video and listening to music. I'm not sure really how that works on the Blackjack so anyone who knows I would appreciate if I can get some info on that.

I'm also a pretty big texter and I would like to use whatever device I get to type notes during classes so a good keypad would be nice.

I really like the 8525 as well but the size of it is a downside to me as I will be carrying in a pants pocket most of the time.

Any help would be appreciated.
 
the w960 is what your looking for. Sony ericsson phone. Triband GSM, 3G, I'm pretty sure it's edge, walkman 3.0 (pretty much ipod capability) touch screen, buttons, 8gb onboard memory, wifi (most college campus support that) and great symbian software. It comes out in a few months. If you can't find it, try wirefly or Amazon.
 
You definitely don't want the W960i since it's a tri-band GSM (900/1800/1900), GPRS, and 3G (not compatible with AT&T) phone. Reception is going to be a problem if your area has mostly 850Mhz.

I think the 8525 fits your need (WiFi, HSDPA, QWERTY keyboard, and etc).

If you want to wait, the K850i is coming soon with quad-band GSM, EDGE, and tri-band HSDPA (850/1900/2100).
 
Yeah, but the k850 will come uberlocked. But yeah, those are you best options. The w960i is around 700 from what I hear, and the talk is that the k850 will debut around 659 dollars.
