I'm obsessed with having the latest tech and greatest and my poor Magician is beginning to feel a bit too dated. I'm looking to upgrade to a new windows mobile device within the next couple months and I'd like to get some suggestions.

Points to consider:
I don't like, want, or need a keyboard. To me that's just unnecessary bulk. I am a graffiti master. (I won't rule out devices with keyboards as long as they don't add too much bulk)
This also means I want a device as small as the magician.
I hate smartphones, so no MotoQs, BlackJacks, etc.
I need QuadBand.
I'd like a speedy device, the faster the better, battery life is unimportant cause I rarely talk on my phone and I'm never far from a charger.
Wifi would be nice but not a deal breaker.

Other than that I'll take any suggestions.

Just bought a Hermes yesterday. Feels fast enough, same form-factor as my Magician (just a little thicker), quad-band, wifi etc. Must say I like the keyboard very much, although switching between characters, numbers & symbols could've been more intuitive.
Looks like all my favorite apps work very well on the Hermes too & I expect an official WM6 by HTC to be released soon. Course one can experiment today with all the marvelous developments being presented on the various boards.

Wish you a wise moment, cause when you're not in the position of trying & buying all the new devices it's a very hard decision to make.

Cheers, M
