Just seems wrong to me so I wanted to warn possible buyers not to go by just the good reviews as things can go wrong.

      I got mine through T-mobile in US this past (mid) July. I have not encountered any problem, including the ones you mentioned, at all.

      Build quality is good, and the keyboard is much better than my Milestone. Indeed, despite being slower with smaller screen and everything else, I use my Cliq more often than my Milestone. Voice quality is also excellent.

      The MotoBlur works wonder even though I'm no longer in US, and where I live right now...HK, our Moto says we won't be getting MotoBlur in the near future.

      And the reason I got it in US thru T-mobile is simple: Moto HK for some reason never imported this great phone. So I had to travel all the way to US to get one.

          DO NOT GET THIS PHONE!!! It is a complete ball ache! I decided to get a 2nd line with my provider for my partner and he chose this phone but we ended up swapping as he didn't use the social networking features to the extent I did... But that plus that fact it is an Android OS is all that it is good for.

          Right the bad parts:

          1. After about a month the internal speaker broke so my provider replaced it
          2. After two months of complaining to my provider the phone was replaced again as it didn't make calls properly, randomly called people when I wasn't using it, wouldn't text properly all my texts couldn't send despite people having room on their phones, the keypad stopped lighting up, it kept freezing, people couldn't hear me when I called them and many more.
          3. My provider replaced the phone and when you madde a call no one could hear you and if they did they only got one word if they were lucky.

          So do yourself a favour and don't go through what I am going through, I really do not like this phone it seems to break too easily despite it meant to be a phone that rarely goes wrong.

                            What is it with you people? Are you all school dropouts or just ignorant? Learn proper English and stop writing "pls tell me how 2 blabla". It's "Please" and "to".

                            Now, the speed and camera:

                            Speed is somewhat slow with preinstalled firmware. To install a custom build firmware is easy and can be done with help from here: http://modmymobile.com/forums/f403/

                            The camera is very good, and takes beautiful 5 mp photos. The video recordings are not impressive. Compared to a Nokia N97, the pictures standup. The video does not.

                                  I have a rooted Dext but when I push the spacebar on the physical keyboard, it types &8 or sometimes H and then it goes onto the next line!
                                  Does anyone know why it is doing this? and if there is anything I can do to fix it?

                                        After almost 9 months since being released, I findally got a copy when I traveled to US 2 weeks ago, because for some reason Moto HK refused to carry this fantastic phone.

                                        Motoblur, which for some reason, also not available in HK, is simply awesome. Constant updates and sync to the phone's contact...and surprisingly it works even after I got back to HK.

                                        Some may find the phone a bit heavy, though what the phone can offer is simply...

                                        I stayed in US for 2 weeks, and I seldom touched my phone, because my wife simply couldn't live without it! She has hundreds of friends on Facebook and Motoblur plus one of the best keyboards around simply makes the weight being no issue at all. (she uses iphone in HK)

                                        Now the phone is in my hand and I'm more than happy with this...and my speedy Milestone. Will also get Cliq XT/Quench tomorrow for the radio.
