I have a Blackberry Tour right now and I have started to like the HTC Desire from US Cellular. I have done some research about this phone and most of the complaints come from "poor battery life." I do not use my Blackberrys internet a lot, but I do love all of the HTCs features and capabilities. If there are any people that has the Desire, or that has reasons why I should or should not keep my Tour, please let me know.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
 
Blackberry Tour:

The good: The RIM BlackBerry Tour 9630 offers world-roaming capabilities as well as Bluetooth, GPS, and a 3.2-megapixel camera. The smartphone offers a great design that combines a sharp display and an easy-to-use QWERTY keyboard in a fairly compact size.

The bad: The smartphone lacks Wi-Fi. The Web browser falls short of the competition, and there's a bit of shutter lag on the camera. You can't save applications to a media card.

The bottom line: With a winning design and fast performance, the RIM BlackBerry Tour 9630 is one of Verizon Wireless' top smartphones for both business users and messaging fanatics.

HTC Desire:

Good:
Fast Web browser, with Flash support
Integrates your contacts across social networks
HTC Sense user interface makes Android better-looking and adds handy features
Big, high-res touchscreen
Great virtual keyboard


Bad:
Some home-screen widgets need polishing
Android is still somewhat geeky
Short battery life
AMOLED screen is hard to see in sunlight
