I have a Samsung i700. this is both a phone and PocketPC. The phone connects to the internet through Verizons 3G network which is about as fast as a dial up modem.
It works great and it uses IE. Most of the webpages will come up just fine. The only thing that it doesnt seem to do well with is any webpage that has forms like my fantasy football. The forms dont alogn well with the correct boxes.
Other thatn that this is a great phone. It is about $550 USD and the plan is 80 a month. That includes unlimited data transfer and 2500 peak minutes with nights and weekends free.
It supports POP3 email clients like Outlook and can synce your mail whenever yoiu want. Doesnt have to be connected to your computer to sync. I Have mine wirlessly sync with Novell GRoupWise 6.5 and that alos seems to work pretty flawlessly.
Its a nice phone / PDA combo. and yiou dont have to carry 2 devices.
But yes, the battery life has much to be desired. I can go about 2 days before recharge with the slim battery and about 3 with the extended life battery in.
