LG VX600039.1% of votes
 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.

Sony Ericsson T61638.6% of votes
 Recap:
Ouch--this is a bit of a shocker. The Sony Ericsson T616, the GSM Conference phone of the year, looked to have all the momentum going into this matchup, then went out and took it on the chin. After a close first half, the Windows Mobile-powered Motorola MPx200 pulled away in convincing fashion, joining another Motorola entry, the V600, in the Final Four.

 Final scores:
Motorola MPx20058.3% of votes
Kyocera SE4741.7% of votes
 Recap:
Well, this was a close one until fourth quarter, when the Motorola MPx200 picked up the pace and forged ahead with a late burst. The Kyocera SE47 was certainly the better-looking team most of the way, with lots of flashy moves, but the Motorola's smarter play in crunch time allowed it to slip (or was it slide?) past the Kyocera.
