Currently I have a 2 year old Samsung Solstice 2. It's a reliable sturdy phone, with a decent touchscreen however I've just about had it with it turning off frequently in the middle of sending a new text. It's to the point to where it won't turn back on for 20 minutes. Some of my options are the iPhone of course but I kind of want some individuality. Then there's the Samsung Galaxy S or S2 but I don't really like the shape of it. Finally there's the HTC Wildfire, but it can only hold 11 apps! I really need some help. I'm switching from AT&T to T-Mobile in October so I can get a data plan, so I need something that I can upgrade into. and it can't cost more than $100.

If you can afford it, why not going for the most advanced phone? The latest iPhone probably has that advantage. I, currently, have a Samsung Galaxy S Epic 4G w/Sprint but in less than a year, I might be switching to Boost for my monthly bill is $106 (which is more than what you would like to spend). I know Boost doesn't have the most sophisticated phones out there, but, I need to downsize my monthly bill. However, I may change my mind and get me a Samsung S2 (which is one of your options) and stay with Sprint if my economic situation improves. Like I said, if you can afford it, I would go for the most advanced and sophisticated phone in the market.

if you want something decent and cheap i would suggest htc inspire, it is a couple years old but it is free with 2 year contract at at&t.
I use it for tons of stuff including playing videos (avi and mkv) and games and stuff. it has a nice large screen and 8gb built in storage (plus I have a 32gb microsd card in mine to give me lost of storage for anime and classic doctor who episodes)

not sure what to suggest on the tmobile network tho.
