It works with my Nokia 6600, so I can't see why it wouldn't work with a Motorola. The only thing is that setting up bluetooth (the stack, hcsecd and the OBEX server) is not very automated curently in FreeBSD, but there have been some useful suggestions in the freebsd-bluetooth list, not to mention the handbook chapter. If you get into trouble setting this up I could dig up the configuration files form my home machine and pass them on. Cheers, Panagiotis
