Have you a shortlist of devices/manufacturers that *are* okay?

I ask as my phone is a little over 5 years old, so I may replace
it in the next year [1]. I'm torn between something like a Dell Streak
(& a foldable bluetooth keyboard) or getting something really
portable like Sony's little slide-out phone - but Emacs will be
pretty painful in QVGA :-/

Alternatively, maybe I'll find a better CF card for my
Psion5, and do Arm Linux that way :-)

[1] Scandalously wasteful, I know - it still gives me
    one week's battery life.
