MOTO Q by Motorola (Sprint)

Pros: $15 dollar data access, doesn't cost as mush as a Treo, clear voice, very fast data speeds

Cons: Only 64MB's of internal memory, no sprint media player, price should be cheaper.

Summary: I love Motorola phones and the Q is no exception. Keep in mind, the Q is NOT a Treo or a UTStarcomm PDA. It is meant for basic or business PDA users. So you can't get as many applications as you could with another Windows Mobile device. That is why the Q cost a few hundred less then more advanced PDA's. What I like about the Q is it's size. I loved my Treo 650 (Before Palm tried ripping customers off with the 700w) and my PPC 6700. The problem with those PDA's is that they are giant in cell phone terms. The Q is very thin. I have always preferred candy bar style phones, because they are more comfortable to talk into. The screen size is large enough for enjoyable viewing of videos. But the Sprint Q doesn't come with the Sprint media player. They might offer it in the future, but for now you will not be able to access Sprint's media center content. Which is a big fault for me. I love listening to Sprint radio and Sirius on my 8400, and it is annoying not having that capability on the Q. For some it won't matter, but when you use that kind of content every single day, you miss not having it. The phone comes with 64MB's, which is not great for a PDA. I would have liked for it to have at least 150MB's. There is a MiniSD card slot, but the Q, just like the Treo's and other PDA's, uses Internal memory for running the phone's applications. So web surfing, playing music, watching videos, ect uses the 64MB's. And that memory runs out quickly when you are trying to do a few different things at once. But unlike the Treo 650, the Q doesn't restart once the memory because saturated. That is because Windows Mobile does a much better job at allocating memory.
The BIGGEST perk for me, is that Sprint only charges $15 a month for unlimited data access. Verizon charges $44. This alone makes the Sprint version of the Q a much better deal. Sprint also doesn't charge extra for different types of POP e-mail access.

So, if you want a PDA for PDA purposes, the Q is not a bad choice for someone looking for their first PDA. If you want more features, then go with a Treo or UTstarcomm.
Always keep in mind the price the carrier will charge you for data access. Without Internet access, a PDA phone is next to useless. So ALWAYS research those prices first.
