My friend lives in Europe and works for the company that does the software and wap sites for a lot of the providers over there, and she usually has about 8 phones at a time for testing and agrees that Motorolas are crap. She swears by Sony Erickson.

If she swears by Sony Erickson and lives in Europe it is likely she only tests GSM (the kind used by Rogers/Fido) phones. Yes motorola GSMs are crap.
Motorola CDMAs (the kind that Bell and Telus use) are the saffest bet of all the brands. Samsung is also pretty good, but, in general, less durable than the Motorolas.
The best phones Telus has ever produced are probably the V60 and the Star Tech. Both motorolas.
Honorable mention goes to Nokia. The only problem being their Telus phones have all been pretty damn ugly.
