Guest Hansen Posted October 21, 2003 Report Posted October 21, 2003 $149 is cheap... I think I am going to order one just for the fun of it.
Guest PsychoDave Posted October 21, 2003 Report Posted October 21, 2003 Quote from Amazon.com "Availability: This item is not stocked or has been discontinued" Looks like you might have to wait a while longer though :)
Guest crafty Posted October 21, 2003 Report Posted October 21, 2003 Also why does the blurb say that you can view and edit Word attachments?!?
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted October 21, 2003 Report Posted October 21, 2003 Viewing is possible through the Westtek viewers which COULD be installed as standard, editing is a new one on me tho :) P
Guest Greywolf_Ghost Posted October 21, 2003 Report Posted October 21, 2003 Some non computer user just copys it down. It's close to a PDA so they assume a smartphone and a PPC can do the same thing.

Guest Maverick Posted October 23, 2003 Report Posted October 23, 2003 The question is ... 1. Is it sim locked ?? 2. Can we folks in the UK order it and does Amazon ship it to the UK ?
Guest stickman Posted October 23, 2003 Report Posted October 23, 2003 I of course do not know the answer, but I assume that this phone is SIM Locked to AT&T Wireless USA. That said, every single phone that I have had that was SIM Locked from a vendor, I have been able to get unlocked by calling Customer Support for the vendor and asking them to unlock it. That is what I plan to do when I get my MPx200 (today hopefully. Just waiting for the stock to arrive at my local store). I can post again letting you know how hard/easy it was to get them to unlock it for me. Although, I think that if you get this phone from Amazon.com right now, you will be forced to sign a 1 year deal with AT&T wireless. I am not positive about that, but that is the way it usually is. Since you are in the UK, that is obviously worthless to you. Might be worth either waiting for Orange to sell it in the UK, or get an unlocked version straight from Motorola (not available yet that I know of). Hope that helps!
Guest emvee Posted October 24, 2003 Report Posted October 24, 2003 I wouldn't recommend getting the US MPX200 for Europe as it is only dual-band (1800/1900). See Motorola US Site The European version is Tri-band (800/1800/1900). emvee
