My wife's cell phone contract is expireing with Telus in about 6 weeks and of course they want her to re-sign with them again.
I told her to negotiate with them and see what kind of deal she could get by signing another 3 year contract. She would really like to get a smart phone with a full qwerty keyboad and all the other goodies

They said they would give her a Blackberry Curve 8330 for free or if she wanted she could get the new Blackberry Storm for $100 off the $250 they want if you sign a 3 year contract. For those who don't know, the Storm is Blackberry's answer to Apple's iphone.

I thought great.... then I started reading up on what some people had to say about the Storm (its been available in the USA for a couple of weeks now). Needless to say, the reviews were brutal.

So now she's thinking about getting the iphone .... but Telus doesn't offer that option.

Any suggestions?
