A tipster sends us new details on the Motorola and T-Mobile Device, confirming that this is indeed the "Zante", and speculates that this is an interim device until the real Sidekick 4.

•It's called the Motorola Q700, or Zante
•September 9-11, 2007 Launch [In question, as are all unofficial release dates]
•Danger 4.0 OS
•Assisted slide
•Round keyboard keys
•Transmissive 2.4-inch, 320 × 240 screen
•118mm x 62mm x 17.5mm
•MMS support
•MicroSD
•USB charging
•Voice dialing
•Same 100/30 SMS message limit as previous SKs
•Same 1.3MP camera

All unconfirmed, of course. Looks like we have a contender here for a hot non-business phone OS. Likely, they'll lock it down like they've locked down the other Sidekick OSes, though.
