Four of the Five RAZR2s Reviewed (Verdict: What a Difference a Carrier Makes)
Sascha Segan at PC Mag just worked his way through testing the AT&T, Sprint, Verizon Wireless and Alltel RAZR2 models. Though all RAZR2s have similar specs—"luxurious metal-and-glass design," 240-MHz processor, roughly 100 MB of memory, a 2-megapixel camera and "the biggest, most beautiful external screen you've ever seen on a flip phone"—each carrier treated this differently. We gave you a nice run-down of feature differences, but here's how the actual user experience differs from carrier to carrier: More »

Verizon Wireless First Out Of Gate With Motorola RAZR2
Some of you are thrilled by it, others of you are disgusted. Either way, we're all eager to watch what happens with the MOTORAZR2, and it looks like Verizon Wireless is the first to announce pricing and availability, with its EVDO-enabled touchscreen-faced V9m. According to a press release, it will be in stores in September at the fairly expected price of $299.99 after $50 mail-in rebate and fresh two-year contract. (AT&T might still beat VZW to the punch with an August 24th shipdate, but that's still unconfirmed.) More »Motorola Cellphones and Headsets and Chargers Oh My!

Ultimate Motorola RAZR 2 Launch Guide
Motorola's mystery announcement is well in the clear by now. Those of you who speculated that it would be BLAZR, TAZR, LAZR, GAZR, CLVR, LOSR, KRPR, and (my favorite) POOPR were trumped by the infinitely more imaginative "RAZR 2". Naming qualms and reminiscent styling aside, there are good reasons to believe this RAZR is entirely different than the one somebody's granddad got free with a two-year contract. It's a full ground-up redesign, with wow features like 3G networking, touch-sensitive screens, and Linux-Java support drawn right into the blueprint. Follow the jump for our complete and oh-so-ultimate guide to the RAZR 2 launch. More »
RAZR2 and The Four Carriers
I'm pretty excited about the new RAZR 2, and why shouldn't I be? It just launched today. One of the positive aspects that Ed Zander stressed during the unveiling is that the RAZR 2 will be out in two versions (EDGE and HSDPA) for GSM carriers and a third version (EVDO) for CDMA carriers. My guess, however, is that what we're really talking about are three (or four) utterly different RAZR 2 experiences, depending on what carrier you have.
