Sure, if I were purchasing now I would look at the most recent successor of the G62. I personally like Motorola, and the G62 has all the features I need. But I would choose a newer version. The newer the better, for longer support.

 I worked for Motorola in the 1960's as a tech. At the time it was called the
 Motorola Western Military Division in Scottsdale AZ USA. There were 3
 Motorola plants in the Phoenix metro area. How things change, huh. And to
 think it all started from a car radio.  I now return programming to normal scheduling...

I worked with the Motorola do-or-die PowerPC project team in Scottsdale!

Small world. I was at Motorola from 1962 to 1968. Don't recognize PowerPC
 and since it has PC in the title I expect it was a little later. Some of
 the projects I worked on were Gyrodyne sub sonar, the Saturn 5 rocket radio
 gear, APS94 side looking radar, and several others I can't remember the
 names of. I did assembly line testing and troubleshooting. Resistors and
 capacitors were actually hand soldered onto boards in those days. Scary,
 huh. I got out of electronics after that and became a Phoenix cop. Good
 move that allowed me to completely retire at age 50. BTW to add to the off
 topic stuff I grew up just a few miles from that plant in Tempe...
