Re: 2010 Modem Poll

Had a 5101 but just bought a 6120 last week to be ready for when D3 rolls out here.

I guess Motorola didnt win in cellphone design, but at least on something about the modem.

I currently own a 5100, but I think that will change to either a SB6180 or DPC3010 as soon as I can find them for sale/for sale at a decent price.

Ooooof.

Have SB-5120 now (I've owned it since 2005), but will replace with SB-6120 (and from Best Buy, although not the *same* Best Buy that sold me the SB-5120 I have now) ASAP.

Why not the same BB? Because I bought the SB-5120 in *Wilmington, DE* (Concord Mall, next to the Doubletree on US 202 between I-95 and the DE/PA border *and* US 1/322) while atending a family reunion.

I got the SB6120 too just because everyone said so.

It is good because of the nice looking cage?

My complaint with the 6120 (and generally many modern devices) are the over-bright LED's. This is in a bedroom, so I have used black tape to cover up some of them. All that is normally visible is the Connect LED, with the activity LED partially covered (it's mostly useless with the latest firmware due to the constant blinking.)
