^ ditto. I would go with the one that you are most familiar with. I have a tendencie to lean towards the Sony Ericsson after many years of using the Ericsson line of mobiles. I hear good things about the new Motorolas though.

I have the RAZR, I like it. Speaker quality is top-notch, reception is more than adequate. Bluetooth is handy but if you have AIM, bluetooth and java running simultaneously the battery life is about two days. 
I find the buttons to be easily felt, the case to be solid, the camera to be useful, the T-9 to be functional.. The only thing I really don't like are the additions of SHOPPING functions on the main menu, which I think is rather insulting.

does that number include the baby?
so.. i looks as if the only advantage the sony has over the razr is video?
how is the picture capacity for the razr? my current sony has very low capacity, so i am constantly deleting. i know the new sony has a memory stick slot, but that doesnt really matter to me. aslo, i have been displeased with the quality of pictures from motorola. there have been no live models i could play with so how are they? thanks

I fall into the category of people that use a phone to make phone calls.

i use the motorla v551, has great reception great speaker sound uses mp3 rings...
and i have 3 friends that have the razr and have had nothing but problems, one dropped it and it completly broke... and plus cingular wont effing insure the things! the sony felt kinda flimsy to me aslo. the v551 is sturdy as hell and works awsome.
