Motorola Reinvents the RAZR

zacharye writes with news that Motorola has reinvented their popular RAZR clam-shell phone as an Android smartphone. The new device is 4G LTE-capable and 7.1mm thick, and it contains "a 1.2GHz dual-core TI OMAP processor, a 4.3-inch qHD Super AMOLED display, 1GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel camera with 1080p HD video capture, an LED flash, an HDMI-out port, noise cancellation capabilities, 16GB of built-in storage and a 16GB microSD card pre-installed." iFixit did a teardown of the phone, finding that the construction necessary for such thinness will make repairs problematic.

    That's not fair. When RIM put out the Pearl Flip, that's when everyone realized it wasn't cool anymore.

    Still might fit in your pocket (or purse/backpack). Might make for nice bar chatter...
    "Say... Is that a Beowulf Cluster in your pants or are you just happy to see me?"

    "Well, I want to beat the shit out of you, the annoying asshole playing music out loud, on your cell-phone, in public. You are truly scum. But I'm too big of a pussy to emulate two fictional spacemen. Or ask someone to turn it down/put on some headphones. Instead I'll rant on /. That'll show those miscreants!" There fixed that for you.
