Motorola Q is extremely thin at only 0.45 inches (the I-mate SP5m and Treo 650 are both about 0.75 inches) and feels rock solid in your hand. The QVGA landscape-oriented display is unique for a WM Smartphone, and the high resolution looks wonderful. The stereo speakers are loud and the camera works well. It was nice to see a jog dial again on a device since I missed these from my Sony CLIÉ days.
The thumb-keyboard is well spaced even for my fingers (I am 6′1″ and 240 lbs.) and makes text messaging and e-mail a pleasure on a Smartphone. The ability to use Bluetooth stereo headphones is also a major bonus, and the other Bluetooth profiles are very well integrated with the Bluetooth Manager. This was my first experience using EV-DO services, and after experiencing it on the Q I am impressed with its speed.
The Motorola Q has an integrated Bluetooth 1.2 radio with a very nice stack and Bluetooth Manager. The Motorola Q Bluetooth Manager includes profiles to connect with a headset, personal network, stereo headset, and Bluetooth keyboard.
The Bluetooth Manager makes it very easy to share files with your PC using Bluetooth, so even novice Bluetooth users should be able to get it going without a problem.
