I am a late adapter when it comes to cell phones. So refrained from Iphones and vu/touch phones as one was mostly tied to a provider data plan or had to pay a premium for the phone itself.

If you dont care about 3g (read data plan 29.99 a month) or GPS there cannot be a better phone at this price range. Solidly built, some reviews complained about back cover. I do see an issue there as it get on the phone with little notches on all sides. But how may times you open that. Specially when SIM/SDHC is accessible from outside. The only time you need to open the back cover is when you install a battery.

What I love about this phone in order of preference.

Form Factor (It looks like a phone and not a PDA)

Not tied to a provider or unlocked so you dont have to be geeky searching for unlocking/jail breaking articles.

Wifi 54G (email is good on the run)

Quad Band GSM World Phone

Media/Music playback is excellent.

Can go upto 16GB Micro SDHC (plenty of music or videos) comes with 4Gig.

Speaker phone and in general call quality for me increasd 3-5 times. (I used Razr before).

Clear brilliant screen

Touch pad responsive enough

Picture quality @3.2MP is good in daylight and flash comes in handy for pictures in lowlight (subject @2-4 ft).

What I will look for in future revisions.

USB Charging capability

A little thinner (Not that is fat right now) but it would make it sweeter.

Total Alloy body including back cover for a more solid feel.

Maybe a more rugged look/feel (non piano black or non shiny finish for e.g Zune kind of finish or finish with more friction), I always get a feeling I am going to drop it.
