i was like... wow, thats kind-of cool-looking... then i noticed how much it looked like a repainted KRZR, and that the specs wouldn't be impressive in 2004... yikes.

If it were Darth Maul's phone it would clamshell open at the top and the bottom. You know what they say: A large phone is the sign of a large...

Mount Doom and Darth Maul? I find it hard to consolidate those comparisons in my head. Otherwise, phone does seem a tad on the anemic side.

It looks black and orange, like they stole the color scheme of Sony-Ericsson's music oriented phones.

Oops.

It has some of the W385 aspects in it as well. Motorola has lost any ability to make original phones ever since the RAZR came out.

That looks almost exactly like the existing KRZR, same specs too, except LESS memory (my krzr k1m has 32mb ram)

@ceilingFANBOY: I was thinking the same thing. I'm frickin sick and tired of Ricoh, but for this phone the fade made it look pretty bad-a&&.

@Cerixus: I used a LOTR reference at the bottom, if that makes it any better. But I refuse to appease Trekkies.

Ok, I have to admit, the fade effect looks pretty cool with this phone.

So now everything black and red belongs to Dearth Maul?

(Yes, Dearth was intentional. No, it's not a very good diss.)
