Default PDA 3G phone

I'm looking for a pda/3g phone but i haven't had much luck with the models.

Qtek 9000 is an option but i think is a bit bulky and i don't really like the keyboard.

All the good looking models are only pdas like the Acer n50 or the fujitsu-siemens loox series.

So far the closest i got to was a Qtek 9100 but it has no 3G and i'm not sure about the slidding keypad.

Do u guys know if there is a comming model which looks good and has pda/3g connectivity??

Also, if not, would u guys prefer a pda or the w950i??

Thanks.

MDA Pro is 3G. Bulky as fuck though.

O2's XDA Atom is really nice as well.

If I were you, wait. Give it a bit longer, unless you desperately need a phone now. All the mobile phone brands are in transition mode, only Himalaya (the makers of O2's XDA's and T-mobile's MDA's) have made 3G PDA phones, but they're not perfect. Wait for the follow ups, like an XDA Atom-II or something

Nokia N61 ? It seems quite nice if you don't need a camera phone

Not in a rush really it's just that my contract is coming to an end and i was thinking to get a new phone with it. So i'll just wait , but it doesn't look there is anything on the next coming months which will be able to do this unfortunatly.

^^^ I think when you don't upgrade, they sort of do a carry over deal with you.

i.e. if you dont upgrade for 2 years, when you do, you get the equivalent value on the phone that you finally upgrade to.
