you generally can't go wrong with the Motorolla phones. We just bought 4 Motorolla v400's for the family. The phone is bloody awesome... but the shipping department at my cell provider is run by morons. This is the 4th time they're shippign out our phones (they got lost, stolen or sent to the wrong place), and only 1 of them has arrived so far.
The price is pretty sweet though. We're getting them for $30 each on a 2 year contract...
