    I have an X10 and the Captivate as well. I'm a big fan of the X10, but I'm waiting for their Android update before I mess around with it much again. The Galaxy S devices are nice. The new Samsung Focus Windows phone 7 device uses the same display. After using it I'm deciding between that and the HTC Surround for WP7.
    The folks on this site have pretty solid taste in phones :)

    I want the Aria size with the Evo speed and options!! The Aria is probably my favorite Android phone in terms of styling, I've always been a fan of smaller, candybar type, phones. I loved the size and shape of my BB Pearl and don't really felt like I gained much with the larger screen on the MyTouch I have now. Though I do miss my physical keyboard, slide phones always seem too think for me, and the less moving parts and hinges the better in my mind.

    I actually just left verizon and went to T-Mobile, I've had many smart phones and PDA's. Droid may be a cool platform and all that but I recently went back to BlackBerry ( could not be happier) from an HTC Ozone and went with the Bold 9700, IMO the 8500 series to the 9700 are the perfect size phone for myself especially when you add an otterbox defender case. I am obsessed with the fact of having an open keyboard on the face of the phone, this is a must have for me.

    I got the iPhone 4 and I think it's just the right size, but man, I have a hard time holding that darn thing, it's so slick. I'm always afraid of dropping it. So, my husband got this big Otter Box (the one that's about half an inch thick with the hard casing with rubber wrapping) and it makes my iPhone almost twice as thick but now I'm much more comfortable with it.

    Sometimes a small phone can be too small...

    OtterBox is the only case I will ever buy for my phones. They are expensive but money well spent. I also like the added bulkiness they add to the phone, heres a video of a drop test for iphone with an otterbox defender case from a rooftop, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tV2NwC7_9MM

    Otter Box cases are extremely well made for sure. The phones I use are generally pretty large and the Otter Box adds too much size for my tastes, but for smaller phones like Blackberry and iPhone it's manageable. They make one for the Dell Streak, but it makes it just too large for me to deal with. Anyone who's job keeps them out in the elements or working in a shop for example should definitely look into them.

    My HTC Incredible is perfect for me - for now. I love the HTC interface. I've picked up friends' Motorola Androids and been completely lost! I'm sure if given enough time playing with them, I'd like them - but this phone was my first Smartphone, and it was intuitive for me right out of the box.

    I am, however, eyeing the next generation for my next upgrade! Karl's like actually has an upgrade available now and he's quite pleased with his phone that's just a phone, and won't be using it. Or I can wait until April and just upgrade my own line.

    This is what I have my eye on currently - although it will probably be re-named and the launch date is more likely to be in Q1-2011 rather than Q4-2010.
