Pros: Very thin, lightweight, HIGH-Speed internet, Camera, Video, standard Mini USB cable.
Cons: Does not flip closed, screen gets smudged easily, ringer volume not easily changed.
The Bottom Line: As a phone, buttons are not perfect; as a PDA, this gadget is ideal. As an mp3/video player, it's good enough. Highspeed internet & landscape screen is really nice.

Pros: Size, Speed, QWERTY pad, volume, memory capacity, EVDO network, ease of use, camera, WM Player.
Cons: Battery life, newer model is still having bugs like the data-transfer arrows.
The Bottom Line: I recommend this for people considering getting into Smartphones. I don't think it'd be up to the demands of a executive, though seems it would lag behind Treo or Blackberry.

Pros: 1. voice quality excellent 2. sync with outlook easy 3. small/compact
Cons: 1. Dials on its own 2. Hands free feature is not hands free
The Bottom Line: Disappointed, yet I would buy it again compared to the other smart phones out there because of its size and ease of use. Just need to lock the keys.

Pros: Thin, Lightweight, Sleek, Sexy, Bright LCD
Cons: Short Battery Life, Software errors rampant, Difficult to set up pop e-mails
The Bottom Line: Don't buy the phone, it has too many problems and downfalls that do not outweigh its superficial benefits.

Pros: Thin, light, reasonably solid, nice screen, backlit keyboard
Cons: Poor phone qualities (sound, performance), poor battery life, poor reliability.
The Bottom Line: Look elsewhere or wait for the next version, because as a phone, the Q is bad enough to cause relationship problems and lost business deals.

Pros: Lightweight and thin, Good quality color screen
Cons: Buttons stick, Too many unnecessary steps, Text messaging doesn't have chat thread
The Bottom Line: I wouldn't recommend this phone until Motorola fixes the problems and comes out with a new improved model....In the meantime look at a Treo or a Blackberry

Pros: Nice display,good speaker, light.
Cons: Hard keys,no app shutdown,glitchy
The Bottom Line: This phone doesn't cut if for business. Glitchy software, poor key design & app management and no voice calling. Not a serious contender to the Blackberry or Treo.
