I searched for one with a touchscreen, full qwerty, and windows so I could use word, excel and sync with my outlook. I picked the HP 6945 communicator. Plus it has GPS and a camera. I’m totally happy with it.

When I was looking, I paid attention to the following:

*Good processor
*Can sync with a PC
*Organizer with capability to get your to-do list from your other computer
*Contact management
*Keyboard for emails/SMS

Combined, that meant I wanted a windows mobile with a sliding keyboard (maybe a touch screen). A good processor can be tricky to find.

Battery life is also very important! Don’t pay attention to the tiny features. Just get something that you know you can count on.

I still use a Motorola PDA but I think iPhone would be a good purchase.

Great suggestions here but also think about durability. Some phones easily break when dropped and have a user put out until a replacement phone can be issued.

Also, think about data security. If the phone is lost how will you wipe the device so company data is not accessible by strangers.
