Motorola's i95cl

Posted by michael on from the it-fluffs-it-folds dept.

thefalconer writes "MSNBC has a very detailed article about Motorola's new all-in-wonder phone offered by Nextel. It is a PDA, has a Walkie-Talkie, phone, web browser, instant messaging, addressbook, it has a high resolution Color LCD screen, and it's running on a Java Based OS! It even comes in a variety of styles and colors just to your taste. There is so much to this phone that it makes you ask "how'd they get all that, into this tiny little thing?" Makes me want to ditch my old phone for one of these right now!"

    I'll buy one when it has a real keyboard.
    Ever try sending a message on a keypad? MAJOR pain in the ass. You can use chat-shorthand to send message to friends, but replying to business email? Where is the spll chker?

    They do have normal rings. My cellphone sounds almost the same as my cordless. Most people just program in silly, cutesy rings or songs or the like because they like it. The phones themselves have a host of normal rings.

    a java OS

    why do we have to keep coming up with new operating systems for these things? I hate to admit it, but Microsoft is on the right track with these things.

    I love my Samsung I-300....phone+color PALM....

    Whats the point of being able to store all these wonderfull names and addresses, if you cant transfer them to someone else without a hassle?
