I would definitely go with the Pro, although it depends what kind of phone you want. If you want one-handed use, go with smartphone (winmo standard). If you are fine with a stylus, go for Pro. If you do go with a smartphone however, make sure it is a recent model which you would be able to load up the WM 6.1, which does have the threaded SMS update (or you could always load up a cooked rom on XDA developers). As for the Windows Live, it really depends on if you get a carrier subsidized phone or a model straight from the manufacturer. Normally carriers remove extra programs such as Live in order to replace them with their own options (extra $$). But that also can be fixed with a ROM flash.
