The sheer artistic perfection and asthetics of this phone almost belie it's functionality - it is not just another pretty face. What prompted me to buy it besides it's cosmetic appeal is the dimensions. The best-selling RAZR was tad too wide for me to use one-handed due to it's width. The KRZR - [I have heard two different pronounciations of it: "Krayzer" and "Cruiser" - I lean towards the latter] - is taller, but narrower and fits like a tailored glove. Sound reception is great, additional features are superb (8x zoom on a 2.0 MP camera; up to 2Gb additional capacity by adding a Micro-SD; stereo Bluetooth capability, E-mail access, Web browser are my favorites). This unlocked GSM phone enabled me to pop in the SIM from my existing provider and go from there, and I am really looking forward to when I travel with it, obtain pre-paid SIMS for other countries, and pop them in and go...all that after listening to hours of music on it's mp3 player on the flight over. This is an advance in the technology of smaller and finer electronics, which seems to be one of the most heavily concentrated areas of technology as of late, and we are just starting to scratch the surface - but what a dent the MOTOKRZR has made.
