I got my MPx300 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I could'nt wait!! I got the European version.
Basically it's the same as the future US version except the 850mhz frequency that the US will have.

I really love it !!!! If you have a chance to see one even try one go for it !!!

This SmartPhone is wicked!!
The Wi-Fi is incredible, i connected my phone to my wireless network at home so i can surf the net on it without being charge !!!

There's many features that i didn't had the chance to try yet ... there's too many !! 😛

I hope for you guys that the US version will be out soon !!!
hey man how did you get it and where from cause i want to get my hands on one too

Anything new?

This still dissappoints me. I realize it's been a couple of years, but this phone had alot of promise.

Moto hasn't really come out with anything spectacular in a long time. Yes, they have the new iPod phone, but I've heard that it has the same operating system as the v400, the RAZR, the v551, and every other phone they make. Have they really come out with anything great, besides the mpx 220?

I still have the MPX 220, and love it. There's absolutely nothing new out there that I would like any better, mainly because I like the flip phone. That's exactly why I was excited about this one.

Any new news out there? I'm probably talking to myself, because everyone else has given up on this one, too. 😕
Havent given up, but i have on MOTO, instead of taking the time to build a quality piece of hadware, they call Apple say lets us rebrand a phone and have us a quick-hit. Looks to me like we'll both have to wait a long time, my eyes are now on the MOTO...

New Info

I actually talked to a Cingular rep today...the assistant manager of a store in Dallas, Tx...and he said they should be getting this phone in next month, but he did seem a little unsure of himself. Who knows? Anyway, I wouldn't count on it. I have had problems with Cingular anyway (the service)- does anyone have any suggestions about a better service, like Verizon or Sprint??? Thanks.
😕
I believe the MPX300 is being cancelled and the replacement phone is Motorola Q.

Possible US Release Date

I posted this a few weeks ago, but it was buried in a different thread. I don't know if there is more to this, but I though I'd re-post so everybody could see this.


"I happened to stumble across this forum. Glad it's here. I've been looking for this MPx300/MPx for a long time. Here is some hopeful news. I called Motorola today (1-866-BUY-MOTO). I asked them if they planned to release the "MPx300" in the US. The response I got was that the "MPx" is being released. In fact it could be as early as late July or early August, however they were not 100% sure on the date. It definately will be released. However, I'm the kind of person that is a "See it when I believe it" person. This tech may not have know what he was talking about. So t...

CDMA Version in march

I had posted befor about this phone bein released with verizon. Just so theres no misunderstanding the phone will be CDMA and will be released in march. I do not have any other info at this time. Just keep checking the verizon site from time to time for an update.
That's great news! Why aren't there any specs available and how is the phone coming in March if it's yet to receive FCC approval in CDMA form? Is there any info anywere about specs? Verizon's website still says nothing aobut it al all.

I can't believe that VzwTech is still trying say that this phone is coming out in a CDMA version, rightnow no one is even sure if the GSM version will even be released. You say you don't work for Verizon then were do you get your information?

I REALLY WANT AN MPX...HAVE A SUGGESTION???

Does anyone know the latest news on this phone? I am really seriously looking to buy one and I can't
find anywhere that is selling one. I am with Cingular, and I don't think they are selling it or even know about the phone. Does anyone know how much it is or where to get one from Cingular? I really love this phone...Thanks guys!
You can get them off ebay, but due to them not being sold anywher else they are going for around $1,000.

Motorola MPx NOT Cancelled!!! I repeat NOT Cancelled

Hey Moto Fans!! I wanted to let you know that the Motorola MPx is NOT Cancelled and is very much alive and kicking!!

My brother works for Motorola in the R&D Dept for New Cellular Technology and he is very much in tune with the MPx...as a matter of fact this is his current project!! I spoke to him yesterday because I wanted to be one of the first to tryout this new phone when it is officially released in the U.S.

The reason for the delay is because the Motorola MPx is using a Microsoft Windows Pocket PC Operating System which will blow away the previous systems on the MPx200 & MPx220. The phone has got a lot of amazing features unavailable in the previously mentioned phones. It takes time to build "perfection" and get all the littl...

From the way I see it...

This just means that there will be more possibilities out there. Motorola is in the business of making or breaking the mold. They will come out with something even better sooner or later.

When it came to the V60 series, they tended to just improve the existing line. This became so tiresome. The MPX series did have plenty of potential, but at the same time, it could have been so much worse.

The MPX series is like V60 series in many ways... You can only improve it so much. Eventually, you must move on...

MPX 300 and where to buy it

I know this phoen was scrapped but it can still be purchased. Does anyone know where to buy this phone. Ive seen it for stupid prices over $1000. Anyone know where to get it, Ive seen several people on here who claim to own so im just curious where to get one. Please let me know.
The mpx300 is available on ebay for somewhere in the $900 to $1000 range. Not bad considering the motorola suggested retail price was $1099.95 just be very careful because there are a lot of scammers. Make sure you contact the seller using ask seller ...

Hi,
do I need special software for the MPx or can I install old software build for the "old" PPC's like Dells X50 or Toshiba e800.

The MPx is Moto's new Next Generation Phone and the software for it is going to be a newly revised Windows Pocket PC Mobile Version 2 Software customized specifically for the MPx. I would not try to load or do anything that would conflict with this n...

Prices should drop on this phone.

Now that the phone has been discontinued, prices should drop. I hope to pick one up at a low price soon. I have seen hundreds and hundreds of phones, and THIS IS THE BEST PHONE EVER INVENTED.

Cingular

I am a Communications Specialist for cingular wireless and I feel that this is the smartest thing they have done. The problems with this phone have been enormous, we have been getting a new customer every day with a problem with this phone. WORST PHONE EVER.
Umm The MPx isn't out for cingular... The Mpx220 is. The Mpx was an unreleased phone(in the US anyway) and they didn't say they were discontinuing the Mpx Line. Just the phone known as the Mpx. Do you really get that bad of customer feedback on the Mp...
