I would recommend the Motorola MPx220 to anyone who travels a lot and needs a true phone and PDA. The keypad is much easier to dial numbers with and the voice command capability eliminates the need to look at the phone when dialing.

I like Windows smart phones, and the ability to sync with Outlook means I don't need a paper diary or a PDA.
The MP3 player on the Motorola MPX220 mobile phone is OK, especially with an upgraded memory card.
Battery life if poor, especially when using MP3's or bluetooth, and it definitely needs charging every day.

The Motorola MPx220 screen is crisp in it's colour reproduction, battery life is ok at about 3 days. Good clear reception with no dropped calls.
Windows operating system takes a while to get used to. Internet explorer is useful as well as Outlook for E-mails. People are baffled by the voice command software as the phone needs no prior training and can understand any voice. Other programs can be installed. Bluetooth works a charm with my pc and headset but voice dail can not be activated from headset. This has to do with Windows software, might be a ROM upgrade to sort this out.MP3 player is loud and clear,Windows Media player works a charm. Memory is expandable with a mini SD card. Good phone with great features. Only gripe is one needs to fiddle with setting to get a decent pic even though the camera is a 1,3 megapixel.

The Motorola MPx220 could have been one of the best. A great looking phone in not a little heavy. The features look great but there the story end.
This is NOT a good for the battery life is totaly US. after three batteries I can only get a max of 17hrs life. The phone has to be charged every day. The windows interface is good if you can work it. The controls are many and slow. The email is very diffecult to use and eats memory.
ALL in ALL this is one to miss.

As far as I could understand from 2 other forums, the battery problem arises on beta-units which are distributed for test purposes. There is supposed to be a fix with software version 0005 but it is not for sure whether it is available yet.

<br>I am looking at buying this phone as soon as these bugs are fixed.
