While there is no built-in camera (an attachment can be purchased separately) the MPX200 can play WMA and MP3 files and video, and it can store up to 1GB worth of media on an SD card. Downloaded music can be played in the background while other applications are running.

The phone comes with a TFT 65K color internal screen display (the external screen is monochrome), and provides the expected (current) high-end functionality: you can send and receive web-based e-mail and swap text messages, schedule appointments, manage contacts, and organize your tasks. Then you can synchronize your Outlook calendar, contacts list, and messages with your desktop PC, either wirelessly, or with a USB connection by dropping the Smartphone into its cradle and letting ActiveSync software automatically do the rest. You can also specify what gets synchronized, and when.

For fun and convenience, users can customize the colors and pictures on phone's home screen, which lets you show useful things like your calendar, inbox message counts, and missed phone calls right up front. You can also download ring tones or create your own tones with downloaded .wav files. And you can assign a unique ring to an incoming call from a specific phone number, so when the theme from "Love Boat" plays, you know it's your sweetie on the line.

The package includes one MPx200, a desktop cradle, stereo earphones, and a USB charger/sync cable.
