WTF. I don't understand your requirement for 3G. Are you tethering (I notice you mention that you run websites)? It can be because of the fantastic browsers we get on the Blackberry. I understand 3G is supposed to allow simultaneous data and voice, which is good if you plan on tethering. And if you're doing that much tethering (we haven't established that you are) a 3G card for a notebook computer would be a better bet (transfer rates are purported to be much better).

The complaint with BB/RIM have generally all been about the handhelds, themselves. So I agree with you there. But I don't see why 3G is such a requirement for you at this point. I've surveyed the landscape (which I do every 6 months) and I don't see much else out there worth owning (except for a 3G data card) over the BB.

If everything goes right, we should have 3G BBs soon (perhaps in about one year? - one can hope).
