EDITORS' RECAP
We thought the LG had enough gas in the tank to carry it to the finals, but the Motorola MPx200 played it smart all the way and slipped past the popular VX6000 in a match that was fairly tight until the final quarter. The strong showing in the semis has Motorola and Microsoft Windows Mobile fans thinking the MPx200 has a serious shot at overtaking the mighty Treo 600 in the championship game.

THE FANS SOUND OFF:

• This one is all about the Moto. Showing it has what it takes by knocking the T616 to the wayside, the MPx200 is the king of the courts. One-handed Windows from the top of the key(s)--what more can I say?--Brian-N, Rigeville, OH

• I have owned the MPx200 for about six months, and I must say it's simply the best for business applications. The quick sync with Microsoft Outlook really sets this phone apart from the rest. I vote for my trusty sidekick, the MPx200.--Justin, Richmond, KY

• You can't go wrong with LG VX6000. It's fundamentally sound, with good sonics and good features--very efficient. It has the style and the functions. A sure winner!--Lee, Irvine, CA

• I have the LG VX6000, and it is far and away THE absolute best cell phone I've ever had (out of four). It's sturdy as all hell, superpractical, and full of features, and being eye-candy is the icing. I'm an LG believer.--Reverend Achtung Baby, Hollywood, CA

• The LG VX6000 wins it--it is way cooler than the other phone. The MPx200 has no game, and it can't compete with the style of the LG.

• Motorola will destroy any punk LG phone any time, any day. Maybe an LG stood a chance back in the day, but Motorola has its stuff together, and the company is ready to take back the cell phone industry by storm. I almost feel sorry for the competition. Almost.

• The LG VX6000 is a great phone. If Tony the Tiger had it, he'd say it's greeeeaaaat!--David, East Stroudsburg, PA

• The VX6000 is a prime-time player, bay-bee!!! A smaller, sleeker body, oodles of features, and that nifty built-in camera mean LG's star forward scores more points per call. If you want a PDA, get a PDA; if you want a great phone, get the VX6000!--Charles, Houston

• A first-generation Microsoft product in a Motorola uniform? You gotta be kiddin' me. That is a recipe for an air ball, if you ask me. A proven performer, the VX6000 looks good and is small. It'll be the LG by 10 points, easy.--JB from NYC
