N97 NAM Vs. iPhone 3gs Vs. Telus HTC Hero

out of all three which would provide less trouble in trying to get the BELL HSDPA network to work.

I am having a hard time deciding which phone to purchase. So I decided to just go with the one that would give me the least trouble getting it to work on BELL.

Also of the three which would be the easiest to unlock.

thank you

It's probably the same trouble for all three phones. You'll have to enter APN settings manually if you want to use Data. You can find the info here on Bell's website

Unlike Telus, Bell is allowing you to use the same plan for new devices you're bringing in. So there shouldn't be any trouble there.

I don't know about the other two, but HTC phones are pretty easy to unlock. All you need to do is pay for unlock code on eBay (~$6), pop in the Bell SIM card and enter the code when prompted. That's it.
