Well my vote is a little impartial since I work for Verizon Wireless. But I will be honest with you on the phones.
I-Phone. Pretty sweet phone to be honest, I have got to play with it quite a bit and it is a lot of fun. It takes a while to get used to the touchscreen, (any touchscreen phone does) but after a while it becomes second nature. My biggest gripe with the phone is that you can't have it fixed or troubleshooted at a AT&T store. Any repair have to be fixed at an apple store or sent off. therefore you are without a phone. The signal strength you receive on the phone is a little shotty and the internet speed is not as fast as you would hope for, the commercials make it look crazy fast, it is not.
G'one (Android Phone) - Good phone, but not enough support in the community for custom programs like what the Iphone and Storm have. The construction of the phone feels a little cheap, if you get a chance to play with it you will see what I mean. It feels very plasticky and seems like it will break very easy if dropped. I am definitely not a fan of the slide system they are using to move the screen. Biggest complaint is that you can't text from the fucking touchscreen! That's right, if you want to text you MUST slide the phone. This goes for any type of text input.
Storm - It is a very difficult phone to learn and get used to. The operating system it uses is fantastic once you get used to it, but the best analogy I can use is trying to go from windows to a mac. It is unlike anything you have used before. I don't personally own a Storm but obviously I have a lot of experience with it and I am used to the Blackberry software since I have the Curve (Which I freaking love). Just like I mentioned with the Iphone, it will take a while to get used to the touchscreen but I really like this touchscreen much more than the Iphone since it must be "clicked" to activate anything. My biggest complaint on it is that they need to work out the kinks with the software. I have experienced the phone slowing down / freezing / or not auto rotating when the screen is turned. All of this will be fixed eventually but it will take a while.
I know tl;dr

I don't know anything about the google phone, but the storm is pretty freaking badass. I would put it above the iphone.
The required data plan is BS though

In all fairness, every phone mentioned above requires a date plan. All cost $30.

Black Berries such and you have to pay for pretty much all iPhone apps.
My dad has a G1, and it's one of the most epic devices I've ever seen.

Iphone - some usage as the others + all your music and videos from itunes.
The others are good but really the added music utility wins out in my opinion.
Gphone has some sweet apps though and BB is better for buisness.

umm all of the choices are shit you give your 13 year old daughter. Windows mobile ftw. Mogul, Touch Pro, Touch HD are about the only real smart devices on the market under 1000$. I love nothing more then being able to do every single thing the iphone does and the blackberry and do it better and still not have to pay 100$+ a month for a shit plan.

My Iphone was $400 and I have a 30 dollar per month plan with unlimited internet usage and calling.
Fail.
