Ugh... Pearl (8100) vs iPhone vs Moto Q 9h vs JACK

Before I begin - The reason I'm posting this thread here, as opposed to other sites like howardforums, is because I'm looking for the blackberry user's perspective.
Well... I'm very disappointed by the pricing on the Bold on Rogers. I was willing to lose a very cheap promotional plan I got almost years ago and switch phone providers just to scoop it up. Unfortunately the student budget doesn't allow for a new 3-year contract, more expensive monthly bills, and a $399 + tax = $450 Bold.
That being said, I'll stick with Fido.
My options are keeping my Pearl, which doesn't seem practical given that I won't be able to have the internet on it (fido already tried billing me $750 bucks, I'm not sure if they'll bill me for using my pearl even if I'm on the $30/6 Gigs and I don't want to risk it again). I love my Pearl, it's ideal for me, aside from the 'net issue. It was also a gift from the girlfriend so there's some history and a story behind it. (your comments here)
The iPhone, which has a keyboard for typing SMS that really dissapoints me. I don't want to be 1 of millions of idiots to buy this thing simply because "its in", but given that I don't know much about the other phones, it seems my best bet. (your comments here)
Moto Q 9 h (your comments here)
Samsung JACK (your comments here)
I should mention I don't care for email via phone, I loved my blackberry's organizer. Having themes which allowed me to see upcoming events right on the display without having to access them separately. Surfing the net was great (until they billed me). I really enjoyed the small size of the pearl, and despite having big hands the keyboard worked for me. I'm hoping for your thoughts, opinions and ideas, possibly even some comparisons to the Pearl in this little 4-way showdown.
Thanks in advance! =)
