I actually really liked my Blackberry. The primary reason I switched to a Droid device was when my Blackberry started to fail, I wanted to get one with a touch screen and a trackball like my old world edition. The Blackberry devices on the market now with touch-screen was weird in that the whole screen moved when you pressed it -- it felt "wrong" when trying to use the screen. They also did away with the trackball and went to a touchpad like thing instead.
The one knock I had against touch screens in general is the inability to re-map where the "target" is when you're using the on-screen keyboard. You'd have to re-learn where that was on a given device based on the size of your fingers. The HTC Eris had the ability to remap that.
The other factor I actually liked was being able to seamlessly sync contacts, calendar, etc. on the device itself or on my computer without having to run the desktop syncing application or hook up via USB. It's also nice that I can log into my wife's gmail account and insert something into her calendar, add a contact, etc. for her and she gets it automatically no matter where she is. I use this feature to help my mother as well.
