Following the earlier “you better hurry up” message for the Palms, I saw this pic of Motorola CEO Ed ZNDR on News.com, where he’s holding up a couple of phones that he says will be ready in December, ahead of schedule, the Q and a pink version of the RAZR.
There have been a number of stories over the past several months touting the strength of the RAZR and how it’s the harbinger of a design revolution that’s going to drive Motorola. It’s been a year or so since the release of the RAZR, and what’s it been followed up with, apart from the usual assortment of mid- and low-end wonders? The underwhelming ROKR and a black version of the RAZR. For a design “revolution”, not much is really happening. Motorola’s got a long way to go to prove that the RAZR wasn’t a one-hit wonder, and it’s still a little early to proclaim they’ve used it to turn things around.
We’re still waiting on the PEBL and SLVR design models, so let’s see when they arrive, and how they sell before we make any more proclamations. One more thing — drop the stupid names.
