I am the proud owner of a Motorola i580.

From what I hear, Motorola phones are very durable and they actually work well, with the exception of the Razr line. Personally, it's pretty important to be able to not have to worry about getting your phone wet, or dropping it, or smashing it, or whatever else you subject your cell phone to. The i580 model has been tested against two-story drops, driven rain, and even a crush test with a truck... and survived. Most friends that I know who have a Motorola have dropped their phones numerous times, which apparently happens a lot. (I have yet to accidentally drop my phone.)

My vote goes to Motorola.

For me at old times was Siemens but now it is Nokia or Sony Ericsson or Samsung..

i am an absolute fan of se phones. as i mentioned in another of my posts, i refuse to buy a phone unless it is a flip or (preferably) slide phone from the sony ericsson walkman series.

i think that se phones rule for a number of reasons:
-they have really easy menu navigation (the first time i picked my phone up, without ever having used an se phone until then, i was able to find my way to wherever i wanted easily).
-really good designs
-good features (especially the walkman series!)
-dedicated in terms of music, video and imaging (this is where the 'sony' part really starts to kick in!)

nokia for sure.. i like it because it is user freindly

Nokia is pretty good company for their ergonomics (though my most recent one is a HTC tytn (brick) phone).

i think alltell is the best phone company, i have had nokia and cingular and i thought they both sucked!

For cell phones I would have to vote for verizon we have had them for a little over 3 years and have never had any trouble. House phone service we use comcast for our phone, cable and internet and have never had any problems with them either.

By far Nokia in the Indian market is the best company and I always buy nokia mobile phones because its the most relaiable company and Whenever there's some manufacturing defect then atleast nokia company tells it beforehand like before there was some defect wiyh BL-5C batteries due to which the there were some cases of blasts of mobile phones,but the company soon made provisions to replace those defective batteries for free>they also circulated the same information to public through news channels.
Motorola is also good but according to me the company is not reliable.

well... Thats what i thought... and i still aprtially think so... But sincei bought my k800i; i changed my mind about nokia. Although i know that N95 is the best in the market and moreover, they have released the new n95 with 8GB! Sony Ericcson K800i is built to last. Great phone but Nokia is the choice if you want to watch videos, use GPRS navigation and other kwl stuff!

Thanks
