Hello,

Here is the thing I have a HTC Tornado (Qtek 8310). I want to buy a new Smartphone because mine is dying slowly.
I do not want a pocket pc phone (I don't like touch screens), and I do not want side keyboard, or a fat one under screen like the SGH-i607. I want to stick with the simple Smartphone design.

I want a Smartphone like the HTC Tornado. All I really need is Wifi and eventually the Visio with the cam in the front.

I notice the phone HTC MTeoR/Breeze.

But apparently the cam caused life batteries issues and it does not have good reviews from what I've read.

What are the other options I can have? What are the upcoming Smartphones or current phones that could replace the HTC Tornado?

The basic stuff I need is:

- Wifi
- Windows mobile 6
- Better Hardware than the HTC Tornado

The htcs730 looks good but it has a slide keyboard, i guess i would need a phone like the htcs730 without the side keyboard if that exist :) http://www.europe.htc.com/en/products/htcs730.html

Thanks

You are narrowing your choice hard, you don't like single hand qwerty keyboard phones nor slide qwerty keyboards.
Your only choice than is last years Asus model P525 (there is one problem: it is a touch screen device) http://www.asus.com/news_show.aspx?id=3316

Well that could be a could alternative compare to the htc touch dual that doesn't have wifi.

It's hard to make up my mind. Is the HTC MTeoR/Breeze that bad?

I don't know, the only WM smartphone I ever use(d) is HTC Cavalier which is very good device but it has single hand qwerty keyboard.

I don't want to buy an other tornado :).

I want to change, the HTC Shadow looks very interesting. Do we have any news on upcoming phone that could replace the HTC MTeoR/Breeze. ?

What is the phone on the right of the HTC shadow on this picture :

That looks like the new generation Blackberry Pearl. It's pretty sweet, but it's Blackberry.

My beef w/Blackberry is fewer apps/games/media/warez, they are less hackable, and it's obviously not WM.
