I got this phone 3 weeks ago through T-mobile. Paid $150 for it. It has been by far the best phone I have owned. I have owned an ericsson, Nokia 8290 and 3595, Samsung s105 and R225, and motorola v60g before this Motorola V300. Nice design and you get a really cool protective cover/ belt clip as well. The camera works well when there is external light, but it turns out completely dark when it is night time because there is no flash. Quality of the picture is not great compared to digital cameras but it comes in handy when you don't have one with you. Compared to other camera phones the picture in the V300 is still superior. One big annoyance with this phone as with all motorolas is that there is a continuous beep indicating the battery is low but there is no way to turn it off, even on vibrating mode. Also the voice activated dialing is cool but you can only activate it after opening the phone. It doesn't allow you to activate it through the external buttons. Overall an excellent phone-I especially like the speaker phone and camera features.
