Q is great looking....if they made a GSM version I'd be all over that (and I usually HATE motorola).....

It runs windows mobile, so its not the most stable platform out there....but from what I hear its not bad....

If your looking in that range you could also get a Palm Treo, they play MP3s (and movies) also....

strike 3, thats a GSM phone. way to go.



as for thread starter, you picked one hell of a ****ty network especially if you want a really nice phone. but out of the two, I would go with the one that has expandable memory, I know the 920 does, but I don't know about the 900.

ps. i'm with bell waiting for my contract to finish.

mp3 phone and bell ??? you do know that with bell you have to download each song from their network right at 2.$ a pop... go with roger I know its more expensive but at least you can transfer data from the phone to the comp and visversa...

I laugh at people who buy the Motorola Q, except when they buy it off me I give them a hand shake and hope they don't refund it...meaing ITS GARBAGE..Wait until the new firmware will be available.

my razr has some scratches on the screen and the silver plating is peeling off the keys.. i have been looking to replace it for a couple of weeks now, but haven't found anything that i liked.. this phone i like

it seems a little pricey, but most things that are worth it are..

The A920 IMO is the better choice at this point.

The A900 is fairly new, about 1-2 months old.. The phone is still fairly new and is probably prone to a lot more issues than the A920. The menus are identical, so basically only deciding factor aside from reliability is shape/size/appearance/etc.. asthetics.

Trust me, this phone is all that and a bag of chips...if you want a data phone try the nokia or blackberry pearl
