The Bottom Line	A simple phone with a funny shape, the UTStarcom CDM-180 suffers from substandard features and poor performance. And sadly, it doesn't take full advantage of its quirky display.	The Motorola Hint QA30 seems like a good idea, but some major design concerns keep it from being a top messaging phone.	The LG Lotus has an eye-catching design, top-notch features, and great performance, making it one of the top messaging phones available from Sprint.	Despite some design issues and a couple of missing features, the Motorola Droid is the most powerful and fastest Google Android device to date. It fully embraces the openness of the Android platform and offers Verizon customers a smartphone that certainly rivals the other touch-screen devices on the market.	The Cricket TXTM8 is a great little messaging phone for Cricket customers.
