Papa needs a brand new phone

So maybe Verizon is starting to finally come around and figure out it needs to offer some compelling new smartphones?  I hate the “cool new products will be available in only [6 months | 12 months | 2 years | etc.]” game, but I’m really crossing my fingers that by the end of the year we might finally have some new choices.  In my sites:

Blackberry Storm 2
Motorola Sholes
and now some HTC phone(s)?

I’d really like something running Android, but if the BB offers a solid choice I think I’d consider that, too.  Hopefully enough of these will drop by the end of the year?
