"Great phone"
4.5 starson by azinzuvadiaPros: Great looks, Slim, Sturdy, Large and Crisp Screen, Great MP3 sound quality in headphones or built-in speaker, Camera, Bluetooth
Cons: User Interface keys and navigation not as easy and as refined as Nokia phones, Video is choppy (what do you expect from a phone - its not a camcorder)
Summary: Unlike some other posters who have posted their negative comments just to spite Motorola for bringing out a great phone with all good features but just for GSM networks (and not for CDMA).
Well lucky for me I live in India, where GSM rules.
I dont want to get into a debate about which network is better, however I have observed that typically the variety and features one gets on GSM phones is greater than on CDMA. (May be because CDMA phones tend to be cell network specific.)
This is a review of a phone. I own it and its great.
Great looks, Slim, Sturdy, Large and Crisp Screen, Great MP3 sound quality in headphones or built-in speaker, Camera and Bluetooth.
The slim metal-etched keypad looks really cool.
In-built Speaker is amazing, almost matches the sound quality of my laptop speakers.
Nokia users will miss the well tested and bug free user interface and navigation. Also some menu keys are on the reverse side than Nokia.

CDMA is only good for users who don't intend to use their phones anywhere but the US and Canada. If you want to travel the world and see other places beside this side of the hemisphere, while having use of your phone. GSM is a blessing

No matter where you live, if you purchased a $500 phone with these kinds of features, then what does that show about you? India is a third world country with an outdated wireless network infrastructure. So what that you use GSM! Your networks can't handle CDMA, so you are stuck.
