"Has some major problems"

This could have been okay as a basic phone.. but this phone has some major problems.
So you are better off paying a bit up and finding a better model without the hassles.
a) There is no dedicated headset jack; I think you are supposed to use the micro-USB to connect earphones/mic. Good luck finding that while on the road if you don't have one. Using it as a music player with regular headset is ruled out because of this.
b) The bluetooth connection is not stereo. So it is not useful for music -- I am not even sure this one will play music through bluetooth headset.
c) The micro-SD slot doesn't want to read a 2GB card. I am not talking about SDHC -- but just regular SD format. I think I saw a mention of 512K limit somewhere. Good luck finding a 512K card.
d) without a working SIM this phone doesn't want to do anything. Basically a power consuming brick. Not sure if all the GSM phones behave that way, but I find that annoying all the same.
e) Don't be taken in by the Mobal card offer worth $20 talk time. Requires a credit card with you on the hook for any calls (you supposedly) made -- also $2.50/min charge for pretty much any number in the world -- incoming and outgoing. Pretty steep. If you are completely out of options in an emergency it may be worth it -- but a little bit of planning should save you 80-90%.

It works but I don't get great reception, the sound quality is only ok and the buttons are hard to push

My phone was not unlocked as I got it thru AT&T (Cingular back then). Overall the phone was awesome, much better then expected with great reception and sound quality.
Highly recommended.

Have had issues with this phones battery life, three days max with out use, and music player, fails to recognize my sd card. Also motorola will make you pay extra for the basic software that lets you add and remove files, rediculous! Call quality and hardware so far has been fine and the texting portion of the software is better than my previous phone, but it is bulkier than I expected, it also apparently has a relatively high radiation level if that sort of thing interests you. All in all I would not buy or recommend this phone with the alternatives available.

I ordered this phone to use in Europe with a SIM card, and it works pretty well so far. I just wanted a simple but not ugly phone, and this one was worth the money.
