LG Wireless Phone - Which cell phone should I go with?

Which cell phone should I go with?

Ok, first of all I am going with AT&T as my carrier. I need something that I will primarily use as a work phone, utilizing the high-speed internet, and either a touch screen or qwerty keyboard. I wouldn't mind it having a decent camera/video recorder, streaming music, and a few pre-loaded games. I would want to have access to Word/Excel/Powerpoint if possible. I basically want a computer phone, I guess. I don't mind refurbished phones, unless someone has a good reason why I don't want a refurbished one. Something easy to use, doesn't scratch or break easy, has great battery life. The catch? Under $100 (with a 2-year contract with AT&T). On AT&T's website I have narrowed it down to a few that I would like feedback on: LG Incite (refurbished) $49.99 w/ 2 year contract Samsung Epix (refurbished) $99.99 w/ 2 year contract {**this phone keeps popping up whenever I change the search criteria for what I'm looking for, touchscreen and qwerty keyboard, etc) Apple iPhone 8GB (refurbished) $99.99 w/ 2 year contract {**was surprised I could get even a refurbished one this inexpensive...your thoughts?} Samsung BlackJack II (refurbished) $39.99 w/ 2 year contract {I think it was this phone I was warned to stay away from, but I can't remember for sure). There are other phones that are not smart-phones but seem to still have everything I need such as Samsung A767 Propel and Pantech Matrix (sliders with qwerty keyboards) and also Samsung Eternity (a touchscreen). But if they have full internet browser access and all sorts of apps, what differentiates these from smartphones? Anyway, please give me cell phone buying advice, explain what a smartphone is compared to phones like the Samsung Eternity, and/or straight up tell me which one you think I should get. Thanks in advance for all of your answers.

hi... you are liking samsung mobiles... try nokia N series phones, because it has functions as u like a smart phone.... and Apple introduces a iPhone WWDC 2009... so many choices to go with a smart phone... the Samsung Eternity's virtual keyboard isn't available when entering message recipients... It lacks a camera flash, Wi-Fi and voice dialing and the 3G connectivity could be stronger.... get more about Nokia N97 from the following link... http://technologycrest.com/uncategorized/worlds-most-advanced-mobile-computer/
