The Motorola Q has all the basic features that Windows Mobile has to offer. The Motorola Q offers picture ID, Mp3 ringtones, different types of themes for your home screen etc. The Q also offers all the PIM functions like tasks, calendar, alarm clock etc. The best part about Windows Mobile phones is that if any function is missing you can easily get a third party app to suit your needs.    

Motorola Q CameraThe Motorola Q has all the advanced features you need plus a lot more. The Q has an Intel processor that clocks speeds up to 312 MHz. The Q has a built in 1.3 mega-pixel camera with flash for Hi-Resolution photos. The Q also has EV-DO which runs very fast and has almost the same capabilities that Wi-Fi has. The Downside to EV-DO is that you have to pay for the service and you cannot use your existing internet. The Motorola Q also has a mini USB for charging and also can be used for many other accessories like mini USB battery pack etc. 

Since Motorola Q is one of the newest Windows Mobile Smartphones, it has all the Bluetooth features that were not available before. For example the Q has the long anticipated Stereo over Bluetooth built in with no upgrades necessary. (Upgrades were necessary for older Windows phones) With stereo over Bluetooth you can now listen to music all wirelessly or even stream music to some Bluetooth enabled devices.  Note that Motorola enabled this functionality by using a non-Microsoft Bluetooth stack which can in some cases be incompatible with your other Bluetooth devices/software.
