Blackberry, PDA, regular phone or iPhone?

Scratch the last, I can't afford it.

I want something that I can access the internet from. I can't afford an iTouch right now, but something to consider is that at the point I can, I won't need to pay extra (for data plan). Then again, I'm not terribly familiar with how that works. I know it's wifi, but are you only able to connect if you're in a hot spot?

Anyway, suggestions? I don't like frilly pink and blingy phones, by the way, so don't worry about suggesting something prettified.

Also, I'm sure there are a ton of topics regarding this. Just indulge me, ok?

blackberrys are alright. i had the curve, but i switched with my dad and i got an iPhone.
the pantech duo seems nice. it's laggy, though, when you switch from landscape to portrait.
also, that new palm centro looks nice.
oh, and just so you know, with pretty much every pda/phone with a qwerty keyboard [that you purchase from directly from the service provider and not 3rd parties like ebay] requires a data plan.
unless you're on a metro, or something.

as for your wifi question, with a wifi enabled device, you can use the hotspots [some which you have to pay for like starbucks], but once you roam off, you'll no longer have connection to the internet.
