[pun intended] :lol: Finally we will get phones that do not break down or need constant firmware updates or registry hacks for enabling Bluetooth. Jokes aside, this is an awesome move by the Moto camp. Looks like Moto is pretty serious about the mobile enterprise customers. Now that it has an awesome hardware platform in the form of Q, it wants to add more power to its mobile portfolio to better compete with RIM, Palm and Nokia.
