Motorola MP BriX 220
Ok,
One week out of the manufacturers 12 month warranty my MPX200 Bricked up after some emergency usage of a car charger (Motorola OEM equipment). It didn't happen right away but immediately after usage, the charging routine and the resource manager failed to agree on the status of the phone and battery and eventually it seem to have allowed an overcharge or some other situation that rendered the phone absolutely inoperable.
I had avoided car charging because I thought I had seen posts describing similar situations but I cant seem to search them out. Was this issue ever addressed by Motorola or was it just accepted as one of the many reasons this phone transforms itself into a paperweight?
I had a choice of V551, SMT5600, or another MPX220 from the insurance company only to log on and see the new 2125 online for the same $199. with activation.
If the replacement is new instead of a refurb it might be going to the great autcion site in the ethernet.
I really liked this phone and suffered all it's qwerks but there is jsut too much reisk in owning it.
