Cellular Phone Forum / Manufacturers / Motorola / March 2004V525 - think I give up.
For comment or opinion oinly. I have been lumbered with Nokia for many years and was very pleased to hear about he arrival of my new phone (V525) .. It would have a camera and a colour screen etc etc etc But I have to face facts that, if I want to do half of the "really" usefull things with it, I have to buys software, download patches, ignore tthe manual, search newsgroups.... Motorola? Too much hassle.... YEP shame really as its a cool phone......just not easy to use...or rather not AS easy!!

The Motorola/Nokia thing has been going on for years. Sort of like pilots talking about high wing vs. low wing. It generally depends on what you started out with. I've had Moto phones since long before Nokia arrived in the US so I'm used to their menus. I once tried a Nok and it drove me nuts. One's not really better than the other, it's just what you get used to.

The Motocrapolla/Nokia thing may have been going on for years BUT there is one clear winner OK if I have to spell it out it AINT Motorolla Bri Snail I repect your opinion. That's what makes horseracing!

Apart from the spelling bit. Just made me chuckle a bit - by the way I'm on my first ever Motorola phone and the jury is still out. > The Motocrapolla/Nokia thing may have been going on for years > BUT there is one clear winner > > OK if I have to spell it out it AINT Motorolla > > Bri Snail You'll really appreciate Motorola the first time you drop your phone off a ladder onto a concrete floor. They build solid phones that may not have every bell and whistle but the radios are good and build quality is solid. My new v600 even seems to be state of the art in the bells & whisltes dept.!

They build solid phones OK, I'll bite. Nobody would WANT to drop it off a ladder but it happens - but I suspect that you already know that. Tradespeople do it all the time. It's no less safe than using it in a car. How about just falling out of one's hands in a garage? The point I was making is simply that Moto phones are sturdy and can withstand more punishment than most other brands.

They build solid phones My first mobile was a motorola and it was just a brick! Decided I'd never use one again, been using nokia's since (apart from a brief foray into ericsson's, ugh!). But Orange offered me a free upgrade and I took the v500 and pleased to bits with it, can't say I've had any real trouble adapting to the software. But I am a techy geek ;) > OK, I'll bite.
