Don't worry if RIM Blackberry breaks down, there are other options too

Folks, if NTP is able to pull down RIM Blackberry in the patent battle, you really don't have to worry as there are plenty of other better options available, rather it's an opportunity for you to acquaint yourself with the alternatives that in someway offers you more than the Blackberry. Here are few of them:

Palm Treo 700wPalm Treo 700w and Palm Treo 650Palm Treo 650: Though both of these lack Wi-Fi, they'll charm you with other deadly features like push e-mail, photo speed dial, Qwerty keyboard, 1.3 mega pixel camera, Bluetooth, speaker phone, five way navigation button and EV-DO.

Sprint PCS Vision Smart Device: PPC-6700 too is a viable option with Qwerty keyboard, EV-DO, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Windows Mobile 5. I hope you won't mind if it only lacks the not so usable voice dialing.

Samsung SCH-i730: It gives you five wireless options: IrDA, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, CDMA 1xRTT, and EV-DO, the handset features speakerphone, slide-out Qwerty keyboard, and camera.

T-Mobile MDAT-Mobile MDA: With sliding QWERTY keypad the still not released MDA is WM 5.0 phone that connects you to IM clients and web. Not to mention, it has Bluetooth, a 1.3 MP camera, speakerphone, GSM, GPRS, Wi-Fi, and EDGE.

Sony Ericsson P910a: It differs from other Blackberry contenders with its compactness and a large screen, scroll wheel, stylus, long battery life, Symbian OS 7.0, Memory Stick Duo slot, flight mode, push email, speakerphone, camera Bluetooth, and IrDA.

You might be thinking, where all these were hidden. Anyway, now they've been digged out, so just hunt down the one that suits you the best.
