  19. That's what I like about my Power: it holds the connection. A little extra
  20. speed doesn't count much when you have to keep re-connecting. It's like
  21. having a "faster" computer that crashes all the time or a sports car that
  22. spends most of its time in the shop. Give me reliability, please.

  24. I think that's the reason so many private companies and government
  25. agencies have been using Motorola radio communications equipment all these
  26. years.
