Anyone got one? These things are sweet just got one..god I'm addicted.

One question though Im using active sync..to move some files over. Where exactly are the "Music" files stored on the PDA. I did create a folder and placed an mp3 there and I can listen to it. But I would rather place the file in the correct section in the phone so that when I do open Windows Media player I can see the song directly.

Thanks,
Jon

I have one. They are pretty handy. Great form factor and easy to use. I don't have anything with media though. Just email, contacts and calendar.

I think my company's traffic app would work on this device. It will show you real time and predictive traffic conditions in most cities in the US.

You can check it out here: http://mobile.inrix.com

i guess because inrix is a ms spinoff. the original idea came from msr.

well here over the pond (Europe) the last motorola that was popular was the RAZR.
here motorolas are know to have a stupid interface that is very hard to navigate compared to other cell phones.

Is this one any better?

I would say ... sort of. It's a SmartPhone so MS designed the interface. I think it works pretty well.

btw, if any yaks are interested in that traffic app I posted above, I have a coupon code you can use to get it for $20 the first year. I am pretty sure it will work on the Motorola Q device, but if you are interested you should make sure the trial works before paying.

I'm not allowed to post the code here but if you contact me I'll mail it to you.

speaking about phones...

our vodafone owned mobile company here will be offering iPhones as they come out.
it's not expected to be sold very much in europe because when it comes out in june (i think)
it will be full of old technology and already obsolete.
