It has "Treo killer" written all over it.
I was wondering how long it would take someone to use this description. My guess is, given Moto's recent history, by the time this device is actually released folks will be using their Treo 750.

Release it within the next 3-6 months, and you've got a compelling device. Releasing it in about 18 months and you've got what amounts to yesterdays news.

I will say this though, I've had my RAZR for about 2 months now and it is absolutely the most reliable cell phone I've ever had........and it looks good too! Kind of like marrying Halle Berry for her personality.

I think it would be neat to see a PPC phone Edition device with a square screen and nothing else on the front. So, the device would just be a small ultra-thin square. All the buttons would be on the side.
(personally, I wouldn't buy it. BUT I think it would be a cool device)

Default MPX?

I remember serveral months back when the MPX got cancelled that there was rumours that there will be a razr type MPX phone coming out. Is this it? I presume not since it doesnt have the clamshell hinge. Anyone hear anything on a follow up to the MPX?

I returned the RZR 'cause its lack of functionality and constant problems with my corporate e-mail. Switched to the Audiovox SMT 5600 'cause of WM and it just works great.

However, I liked very much the very good design of the RZR over the Audiovox and wished that they could come up with a WM RZR. With the Q I will definitely will switch back to Motorola. I just can't wait. Now I just wish that it'll also have WiFi .

Can we also expect it to be GSM Quad band?

Well, I wouldn't use GPS as often as other functions such as wireless, so I'd rather not have the additional bulk or reduction in battery size to fit in the GPS unit. If there were no tradeoffs, yes, integrated GPS would be great. But there are always tradeoffs.

100% they are capable of integrating GPS with almost no tradeoffs. Of course you will use wifi more, but GPS will seriously improve the quality of the unit considerably...

They should start integrating GPS, like I said I wont buy another phone till they do. I mean, I already have the pocket pc wifi etc and the smartphone, so why would I buy another device that has all that stuff. Everything works fine now. What I really want is an all in one device, kind of like the mpx 300 style, but smaller and better and with better memory, specs and of course GPS!
