Can anyone tell me the main differences between this phone and the HTC 5800, besides the form factor and Q9m accessing Vcast music.
Can either of these phones use VZ Navigator?
Can either of these phones use SDIO for wifi?

HTC SMT5800 does not suppport SDIO
The Motorola Q9M does support SDIO
via the MiniSD slot.

I had an original Motorola Q, upgraded to the
HTC SMT5800, hated it.
Battery life was horrible, no voice command like the Q had, it only had "voice tagging" which is NOT the same thing.
The buttons on the face and the slide out keyboard are cool and all that good stuff however its a little hard to hit the buttons on the face with holding it one hand. The buttons are very tiny.
There's no extended battery available for it.
And to lock the keypad took 3 steps.
Its not a terrible phone, I just didnt like it when compared to all the features that were not in it that I was used to in the original Motorola Q.

Just last night I got the Q9M aft...

thanks for the input, all good points. The verizon salesguy I talked to told me the Q9m had terrible battery life, couldn't go a whole day the 5800 was much better as far as the battery.

Im ordering an extended battery and battery door cover for my Q9M today.
The standard battery just about lasts most of the day, but if you use the web for like 1 hour straight, that will kill the battery big time.
