Then the supposed MVNO version for Amp'd Mobile showed up in our life. Finally we had a sneak peak of what would be the HSDPA version. And now the flurry of pictures continue. However, this time it's for Verizon Wireless and unfortunately the keypad doesn't look as snazzy as its GSM counterpart. A Howard Forums member decided to give us all a little treat and show us this new rubberized black beauty. No word on what the exact specs that Verizon will be giving us, but we are sure they won't neglect us this time around. Now try not to drool and check out some more pics after the break!"</i><br /><br /> <img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/Kris-nov2006-vzwqblk.jpg" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/> <br /><br />According to these photos Motorola is working on an updated version of the Q for the Verizon Wireless network. The specs are not known at this time; all we know is that it will have the MOTOPRO Mobility Suite, which is a software package aimed at enterprise users. It also looks like it has the same rubberized body style that the T-Mobile Dash (a.k.a. HTC S620) has now popularized. I wish Motorola had changed the keyboard button style from the current rounded ones to the flatter <a href="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=80170">Norman</a> style.

Now that we know Moto is working on two Smartphones side by side, there might be double delays and double troubles.

I don't think because Verizon changed the color to black the Motorola Q should be called the Motorola Pro. In the Engadget post it notates the Q picture has the same specs as the originally Q, except it is black.

Does this mean the Black Razr should really be called the Razr Pro? :roll:

Ok, I'm being a smarta$$, but you get my point.

This is definately not the Motorola Pro we saw here: http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/11/09/motorola-norman-aka-q-pro-in-the-flesh/

It is definitely not the Norman. The pro is also supposed to include some wonderful extra software. Yeah right.

I dunno if it's the Norman, or the Q Pro, or what, but I just saw a black Q on a Bell commercial. So there is a new CDMA version.

Black is stylish...don't these two look like they are all dressed up in their tuxs, kinda like 007. :lol: Moto wants to join the party.
