Question I need a recommendation for a smartphone

Ok, since I have a few things in my wish-list, I'll break this thread in parts.
Now, keep in mind the only PDA platform I have ever used (for other than a pc) is Palm OS (v4), and although I do like it, I am open to "better" platforms (assuming there are).
- In order of importance -
1. Let's start with Time Management & Contacts software. By Time Management I mean tools like the Palm Calendar.
2. It is also of the utmost importance to me to be able to synchronize the info in the device with my pc.
3. Email & Web browsing (comfy typing would be nice for this). I work for a major cellphone provider so I don't have a restriction on data consumption, fortunately.
4. Video. It would be nice to be able to watch some kind of video, but not just internet-streamed video, but namely video files like MOVs, AVIs, and WMVs.
5. It would be nice to be able to use the smartphone as a modem for a laptop.
6. Music capabilities would be nice too, like able to create/manage playlists, and a good sound quality.
As for the budget, I'm trying not to exceed $400. But I might consider around $500.
Considering all these things which smartphone/s would you recommend?
This should help narrowing down the choices...I must get it from my carrier

Thanks in advance,

JDL
