MDA Touch Plus

If you can get by without GPS, Wifi and a keyboard it's a gorgeous phone.
Very easy to use (the TouchFlo), very configurable and has some great apps out there.
GPS you can get by with a BlueTooth kit, and the keyboard is on-screen (with some great on-screen keyboards anyway), but the killer for some is lack of WiFi.
Apart from that, really really nice phone.

Had mine a while now. Love it. Push email works a treat from works exchange server, plus i can pick up all my other email accounts on it.
3G is good for surfing. Dont miss the Wifi too much.
As for GPS, i use a bluetooth GPS any way.
Only minor annoyance was no "live messenger" but got that installed now.

I used to think the lack of wi-fi would be fatal, but as long as you are in the UK then having HSDPA is much more flexible than having wi-fi. It's a different story abroad, though... you definitely don't want to be paying the roaming data rate!
Otherwise, it seems to be by all accounts a cracking phone. If I didn't get an iPod touch, I would have bought the MDA Touch Plus...

have the Touch Plus too, first thing i did though was remove the SIM/CID Locks and flash it with the Tom's Project Niki WM6.1 ROM
this flashed the handset to a HTC Touch Dual and added lots of features as part of Windows Mobile 6.1
Xionic

Love my Touch Dual and aside from changing the theme from Orange's default one to the HTC one I haven't needed to change a thing. I really think that this is a breakthrough phone, it brings WM to the masses and finally makes it use able, before I felt WM was a geek tool but this is an intuitive unit and interface in a form factor which is nearly normal phone size
