The E-Mail did not offer any new information and simply links to the familiar Moto Q product details Web page. The release date is stated as Q1 of 2006. :( Didn't Motorola say that they are going to imitate Apple, and that they will announce the new products to the world only a day or two before the formal launch? :? What happened to that resolution?

Hey, this time they are stating voice as a feature...

providing easy access to email and great voice functionality*

And I thought that the "phone" in Smartphone had nothing to do with voice.
:rotfl:

Oh and in case you are wondering what the * means in the above quote, well it stands for-

* Network dependent feature, not available in all areas. Airtime, data charges, and/or additional charges may apply.

So voice quality is a Network dependent feature and it is not available in all areas. :lol:

We can only hope whoever wrote the copy had nothing to do with making the phone. :lol:

Even more scary thought is that the person who wrote the copy was not qualified to write it. :roll: The * should have been next to the "access to email".

Or could they have meant what they mean by the placement of *? 8O

As Paul Harvey (http://paulharvey.com/) would say "Could they?"

I guess they aren't ready so they might as well do as much damage to the competition by hurting their Christmas sales.
