Not sure what your best choice is, but this might help you choose:

oh, and the supported features you're looking for regarding the phonebook are the following:

Receive Contact
Contact Import Ability to transfer your contacts individually directly from your phone to HFL. The phone must support the Bluetooth® OPP Profile for this feature.

Phonebook Import
Ability to transfer and store up to 1,000 names and
10,000 phone numbers in the phonebook located in your Navigation system
from your cellular phonebook. The phone must support the BlueTooth Sync or
PBAP Profile for this feature.

well, I have verizon and I had a blackberry 8130 (pink of course) and I lost that so I bought the samsung glyde, liked that but hated the touchscreen. Then I got the new LG chocolate but that was not compatible so I sold it on Ebay and got the old LG chocolate 8500, Works Great!

I'd go for the blackberry if you want a newer phone though. I know the 8130 is compatible because that is what I had but I don't know about any of the other models.

I got the Motorola Z6cx this past June because (1) it's compatible with the GSM networks in Europe if you put in a SIM card (apparently available free at a Verizon Wireless store) and (2) it has no camera. It's been fine with the TL, but doesn't let you export the phonebook from the phone to the HFL as far as I know. Battery life has been pretty darn good compared to my old RAZR (had it from 2006–2008) and the v710 I had from 2004 to 2006. On the whole I think I like my current phone the best of the three Bluetooth-equipped phones I've had.
