Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
Frankly, communication to consumers is far more important than technology in the phone arena. My biggest gripe when trying to buy these devices is going to a phone store and only finding appearance models, and no functional devices which will show me how bright the display is, how perky the UI is, whether the phone actually can be heard if you put it to your ear.
Apple has been superb in their retail stores at giving people enough of a tactile experience with their products to actually want to buy them. The fit and finish of the products really helps make the sale.
