Why not just rerelease the DynaTAC (or even StarTAC)? They'd make a killing.

Seems Motorola's design house can't seem to find that sweet spot. Their general design motif just doesn't look right to me. There's this whole supposed "low-fail rate" design to their buttons, but then they slap these panels against horrible retina-raping colors and ugly shells. I think that they just pull whoever designs their utilitarian hardware to design their consumer-grade hardware, unless someone (I know there's gotta be at least one!) who can correct me.

I do like the idea of the recycled phone, but "carbon neutral"? Does the battery run on the souls of tortured murderers? I'll buy three if that were the case.
