It is crippled, but there is a simple hack to fix the problem.

See "http://www.v710.org/mark/V710_SeemEdit.htm"

It's the exact same procedure for the V325, with the same 041A SEEM code.

However, you also must _manually_ configure Motorola Phone Tools to set
the phone to a V323m rather than the automatically detected V325. This
is what is often omitted from people's instructions.

Once in Phone Tools, do the following:

1. Press F6
2. Click on the "Communication Tab"
3. Click on "Change Modem"
4. Click on "Next"
5. Click on "Next"
6. Check the box that says "Do not automatically detect the driver.
Select from a list.
7. Click on "Next"
8. Click on "Motorola CDMA"
9. Select "V323m"
10. Click on "Next"
11. Click on "Finish"

If you do only the SEEM edit, then the Multimedia function still won't
work. If you do only the Motorola Phone Tools change, the Multimedia
function still won't work.

As always, there is the precautionary note about changing the SEEM voids
the warranty, though you can always change it back.
