I actually was looking to upgrade my phone a couple of weeks ago and the Motorola 551 was one of the phones I considered. I did some research and heard nothing but good things, so I decided to get it. I had it for one day and took it back.

I'm used to smaller phones and this one was too big for me. Ridey was right- it's heavy and big. I also didn't like the layout of the menu options. I really don't need a cell phone that has a video camera and bluetooth, so I opted for a simpler phone. I ended up exchanging it for a Samsung E317 and I love it!

I would not recomend the v551. The V3 is a nice phone. The Sony S710 is coming out soon and that will be a great phone.

My first cell phone was a Motorola 13012 that I got in 1995. That thing was built like a tank. For its time, it was a great phone.

My fourth cell phone was a Motorola, and it was piece of garbage. I had to send it back to T-Mobile for my current Motorola. I've had this phone for about a year, and its a piece of garbage too.

I'm probably going to change carriers in a month or two. I'm considering Nextel, so if that happens, I'll wind up with a Motorola. If I pick some other carrier, I'll probably choose an Ericsson.

random thought, Nextel and Sprint merged late last year, and the peeps with Nextel are having to buy Sprint phones.....

That's not yet true in New York.
