I will NEVER buy another moto phone with the letter Q in it... they suckered me 18 months ago with all the Q fanfare... I curse this phone daily and have only 6 more months of misery before I can trade to a new phone for free... what's the issue you ask? Even with an extra capacity battery I'm lucky to get 6 hours of use from this phone. Worse is the MS Mobile 5 software... full of bugs, poor design and maddeningly slow. I wish Engadget would do more to cover the early reviews that these devices receive so us gadget freaks don't become the beta testers for all these so called "breakthrough" products... give me a break.
hey Brad - just so you know, a lot of phone providers let you do a phone upgrade in less than your original contract, because it saves them the risk of losing you. Maybe you've already tried...if not, give them a call and say you'd like them to upgrade your phone now or you're going to switch in 6 months.
