Person1: "So what's up?"
Person2: "Got a new cell phone!"
Person1: "Oh yea, cool what kind?"
         "Hello???"
         "Hello?? You still there??"
         hangs up

  -- 3 minutes later --
Person2: "Hey, its me again. We got cut off."
Person1: "Yea, what happened?"
Person2: "Oh, just a bsod, it happens occasionally"
Person1: "Oh that sucks."
Person2: "Yea, but it's ok. I just have to re-install it this weekend and it'll be fine"
Person1: "So what are you doing?"
Person2: "Just trying to figure out how all these numbers got in my address book. I've never heard of these people before!"
Person1: "Maybe you accidentally did something to the phone?"
Person2: "No, I haven't done anything. The only thing I did was check my Microsoft voicemail."

a good friend worked for motorola here in my town.
he was a good way up the tech ladfder in the company.
he told me that motorola devices are crap.
every cell phone they made had serious flaws.
im glad m$ went with them. nothing like crap software on a crap device to drive customers away.

And for the same reason, I'm glad Apple dumped Motorola.
