If you don't need a built-in phone, give a try to the iPAQ hx4700 (with the
WM6.1 upgrade) or the iPAQ 210 (if you can live with the touchscreen
insensitivity of the latter, which certainly plagues at least devices
manufactured before last December). They're excellent devices.

Probably not, given the subsidy available from the mobile-phone
companies. HTC Touch HD is available for free on a fairly modest
contract with Orange, but costs £500+ if bought outright.
