I had a seizure due to the high amount of "awesome" that was present in those pictures.

Just a quick photo shop
The phone will be released in June and available only on Cingular. There's a 4gb for $499, and an 8gb for $599. Europe gets it in the 4th quarter and Asia doesn't get it till 2008.

This phone really needs a James Bond type movie to premier in before it hits the market.

It does look awesome but how often will the thing crash like iPods do.

Call me a strong cynic as I strongly doubt that the videos on those kinds of phones would be closed captioned. If that is the case, the words would be tooooo smalll. (too small)

A friend of mine is director of product development for Motorola. I was on the phone with him today, and this phone came up. He has known about it, of course, for some time - although he hasn't seen all the specs yet. He was impressed with the design and some of the features (Apple is definitely good at the wow factor in their design), but he brought up a few minor concerns and one major one. I won't go into the minor ones (they're minor), but the major one is battery life. It's a thin phone. Battery technology is what it is, and there's only so much you can do in the space they have. The phone looks like it has a pretty vivid, large screen. Huge power drain. Since it's a touch screen, the screen is in use much more than an average phone, meaning even more power used. He gave me the stat that for the Motorala Q they figure one hour of standby time lost for every minute the screen is on. They decided against a similar touch screen for that very reason. Wifi is also a huge drain. Bottom line - phone is very cool looking and has some neat functions, but until battery technology (or physics) changes, it will have some real limitations.
