Blackberry Pear/ Blackberry Curve/ Palm Treo 750
I am confused about which phone I should get. My main concern is that my phone has an EXCELLENT BATTERY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!! I have heard good things about both and I have also heard bad things about both..... I currently have a Razr v3 and it sucks horrible!!!!! So the type of keypad isn't really a big concern to me. But the battery life is. I need to be able to view attachments in email and multi-task. Any help would be appreciative!!!

I would say the treo 750 hands down..it can do anything the pearl and curve can do...becides that its touchscreen much easier manipulation, and it has word/adobe manipulation. Pearl and curve are just glorified 2way pagers. Only problem with the 750 is that its a bit shaky/unstable. its like running windows on a Mac computer...But overall the 750 is the way to go...or the HTC 8525 which is a very good all around it does everything the treo does and it has wifi. But it has a sliding keyboard which in my opinion is annoying when your driving and typing on the go…but your moving from a razr so you have to ask your self what do you really want or need in a phone..if you just want to send emails and text then go for the BB.

Dialing on a touchscreen = annoying. The 8525 is good, but it's not my choice. I'm also not a fan of the 750, as it's bulky and heavy as hell. Both the 750 and the 8525 are 3G, which gives you a shorter battery life.
I use the Curve, after having used the Pearl. The battery life is better, i like not having to worry about the expensive and fragile touchscreens. Blackberry's are built like a brick so dropping it usually doesn't do it any damage. You can sync it fully with your PC or Mac to get your calendar, address book, notes, memos, and email. The free Mac application doesn't support syncing pictures, but The Missing Sync supports it and costs about $40. You can also open Microsoft office applications with 3rd party software ins...

You deserve an answer since Keovani didn't actually read your question... 🙄
The Windows mobile devices have much faster processors and highspeed data, both of which are battery life killers. If battery life is your primary concern, you'd want a Blackberry. The operating system & email capabilities are a matter of preference - you might love it, you might hate it, but it's definitely worth a shot. Saying it's a glorified pager isn't quite accurate. True, it may not be quite as capable as the Windows Mobile devices, but depending on your needs & preferences, a Blackberry will be more than good enough.

3G devices have the added advantage of simultaneous voice & data - but such use does eat the battery quickly. My recommendation - if you have heavy use and run the battery down quickly, invest in a spare battery and car charger, and keep it plugged in to charge whenever you can!
