Well rounded but this is a slippery bugger.

Have had this phone for a few months now and I like it very much. It is very functional and it does what it is advertised to do, i.e. text like a mofo. Also, it gets a lot of looks for people and everytime someone sees it they grab it from my hands (without even asking sometimes). Apparently, its very *cute*. I think so too!

Anyway, the phone's features are well designed however the menu could definitely be a little better. However I must say that the bar phone mode when the cover is closed is quite useless. I can't text to anybody without opening the thing. Sometimes it is quicker to just use the bar mode to text (its not really a complaint though!). But the thumbsize keyboard is most certainly a fantastic selling point, I can even text in my car while I'm driving!

Anyways, apart from that the menu system is standard motorola I suppose nothing great there. The camera's best resolution is a 640x400 grainy picture that is not good for anything but some quick snaps of someone doing something naughty.

Overall, I like the phone for the features and of course the price (~$0 in my case). I wouldn't have gone out and bought one of these if I didn't have this fixation with bar phones. This was the only one that worked as a compromise between a bar phone and a flip phone.
