    Anyone here able to install the USB drivers for their Motorola phone? WinXP
    (SP2) keeps giving me the "USB device is not recognized" error, which
    prevents me from using the Mobile PhoneTools software, thanks.

    The MPT disk contains the drivers. You need to make sure you delete the
    Motorola phone from Device Manager under modems and maybe under ports.
    Next, install MPT from the disk. Start MPT and then and ONLY then, plug
    the phone into the USB port.

    Unplug phone, remove battery for 30 seconds, turn phone back on, plug in
    cable, redetect phone. Not guaranteed but it's worked for me. I've
    found that the battery removal trick often solves the problem.

    Have you upgraded MPT to the very latest version (3.25b as of 5/22/05)
    using live update? Since you have a newer model that would be important.
    If so, you might try Data Pilot (www.datapilot.com) which lists the T730
    series as supported. You don't have to buy their cable, just the
    software. I have Data Pilot too and it's a good program, well supported.
