Let's review the many features and how they work. note: some of these features require you subscribe to these service with your carrier.

Bluetooth Connection, a wireless connection similar to infrared, which allows links to additional devices such as Bluetooth-enabled wireless headsets, computer printers, and other devices. Bluetooth is designed to allow such devices to share data without as much complex setup as other connections require. Also used as a wireless connection (modem) for laptop computers.

Two-way Radio, Direct Connect Push to Talk Service. (walkie talkie) An instant communication feature available on many Motorola cellular phones that let subscribers call each other walkie-talkie style without dialing the 10-digit phone number. Calling plans that offer this feature usually provide a separate allowance of minutes for the service outside of the allotted airtime in the calling plan. Popularized by Nextel, several other national carriers have announced plans to emulate this service on their networks. Currently, the two-way radio feature only works if both parties subscribe to the service on the same service provider’s network.

Text Messaging
Probably the most common, non-phone function available on Motorola cellular phones is the ability to send and receive short email-like text messages to and from other cell phones. Sometimes called SMS, short for Short Message Service, the international standard for such technology, this capability can be handy for sending short, discreet messages to someone who's not free to take a phone call and isn't sitting in front of an Internet-connected computer. Typing text on a phone's numeric keypad can be tedious, even with the ubiquitous software designed to simplify the task, called predictive text entry. That's probably why these messages are limited to about 150 characters. Through agreements among the carriers, SMS messages can be sent to any cell phone user, regardless of which carrier they use. Several more elaborate forms of messaging that let you embed or attach graphics, digital photos, music clips or other multi-media content, but these technologies -- known by acronyms like EMS for Enhanced Messaging Service or MMS for Multimedia Messaging Service only work on specially equipped cell phones and between compatible phones from the same carrier.

Speed Dialing or One Touch Dialing, a feature of virtually all Motorola cellular phones that lets you designate a few stored phone numbers for quick one or two button dialing of frequently called numbers.

Vibrating Alert, another ubiquitous feature that lets you set your Motorola cellular phones to vibrate instead of ring, providing a silent alert for incoming calls that lets you keep your phone on in public places where a ringing phone would be inappropriate.

Speakerphone, a valuable ability to talk on your Motorola cellular phones without holding in up to your ear, which, among other benefits, makes hands-free operation while driving a car much safer.

Voice Dialing, the ability to speak a name stored in your Motorola cellular phones electronic phonebook to dial the number instead of pressing buttons on the numeric keypad. Another feature that eases hands free operation while driving.

Voice Recorder, the ability to record and playback short spoken notes to yourself.

Games, make your Motorola cellular phones an entertaining diversion from airport layovers, tedious waiting in line or other boring situations.

Ringtones and Graphics, the ability to add new ringtones, screen graphics and other data that didn't come built into a phone by connecting to your carrier's or a third-party data service and "downloading" them over the airwaves to your phone's internal memory. Some phones are limited to downloading ringtones and screen graphics, while others can add games and other software programs, including productivity tools and relatively sophisticated applications.

Ring Tone Melody Composer a software program built into some Motorola cellular phones that lets you compose your own melodies that can be played as the ringtone to alert you to incoming calls.

FM Radio and/or MP3 Player, some Motorola cellular phones have a built-in radio or digital music player that eliminates the need to carry one more electronic device for fans of portable music, talk radio or news broadcasts.

Instant Messenger, the popular device-to-device, text chatting service that lets you type silent conversations with someone using an Internet-connected computer or Motorola cellular phones.

Personal Information Management or PDA Functions, anything from simple organizational tools such as an alarm clock, calendar and to-do list to sophisticated hybrid devices that combines a Motorola cellular phones with a full-blown handheld computer. Many inexpensive cell phones and mid-priced models include the basic organizer functions, and most can be synchronized with calendar and contact info maintained on a PC. More sophisticated cell phone-PDA combo devices typically cost several hundred dollars.

Infrared Connection, An infrared link that lets you connect wirelessly to other cell phones or to handheld and laptop computers, primarily for exchanging and synchronizing phonebook or calendar data. A particularly useful feature if you use PC-based contact management or calendar software and want to keep the same data stored and updated on your cell phone.

Global Positioning System or GPS, a receiver that uses signals from GPS satellites to pinpoint the geographic location of the device. This feature will be used to provide location-based services, such as the location of emergency 911 callers.

Network Technology, You may not have a choice of network technologies, if you've followed conventional wisdom and chosen your service provider and calling plan first. There are some technical differences between the three predominant technologies in use -- a system called CDMA used by Verizon Wireless, Sprint PCS and others, Nextel proprietary iDEN technology and a system called GSM deployed by AT&T Wireless, Cingular, T-Mobile and others, including most of the carriers in Europe and most of Asia. But the general performance characteristics of all three are comparable, and the only real significance to subscribers is that these technologies are incompatible with each other. That means you can't buy Samsung mobile phones from one carrier and subsequently use it on another carrier's network.

The one instance in which network technology should influence your choice of carrier and Motorola cellular phones is if the ability to use your phone overseas, a capability called international roaming, is important to you. Frequent overseas travelers should consider the GSM carriers and a "multi-band" Motorola cellular phones that also works on the GSM frequencies used abroad. These carriers and Motorols cellular phones allow you to make and receive calls while traveling in many countries in Europe and Asia, albeit at a much higher cost per minute to talk time with your Motorola cellular phones.
