Could be one of several MB (Motorola) models. It must be an MB phone, same model of a non MB will not work. I have an MB Timeport from my 02 ML500 that I can sell to you if its the correct phone. E mail or PM me if interested.

I purchased it for and used it on Cingular. Comes with a spare battery, charger, belt clip and the MB manual. Was not compatable with my 06 when I traded for it so I bought a new phone for it. I also needed a "world phone" which the one from my 02 is not. Its in very good condition.

Ok, I’m interested, but because I’m buying it for the wifey who’s a little picky about this type of stuff (she currently has the razr v3) could you send me more info about the phone or pics perhaps? Also, the price you’re asking.

Thanx

Something I absolutely love
The Moto V60 fits into the cradle as far as I know because I have one. If anyone knows a way to retro fit it for a different phone.

Thanks

I would be glad to fax you a copy of the pic from the manual. However, before we go thru all this check with your MB dealer and be certain that the cradle is for an MB Timeport. It should also have a coiled cord in the same compartment as the cradle to plug into the phone when its in the car. Compared to the Razr its approx the same size but a bit thicker. Also its a TDMA phone and for Cingular as I previously mentioned. PM me your fax number and see your PM's for the price info. And you can tell your wife its silver in color. Thats all my wife cares about also.
Thanks!!

T Mobile, may be a problem getting an MB phone that will work with the set up you have. My wife uses T Mobile also and has a blackberry. We have found that the coverage, at least where we go is lousy on T Mobile. She is always using my phone as there are so many holes in her coverage here in the US and in Europe. Sorry I could not help, good luck!!
