Motorola RAZR2 V8 & V9


Motorola is coming out with 2 new slim clamshell successors for their ever so famous RAZR line. The Motorola RAZR2 V8(in black) and V9(in red).
The difference between the 2 n its predecessor the RAZR V3 is that the V8 n V9 sports a new and 2" wide screen on the outside with touch sensitive music keys. Both have a system call haptics technology which enables the touch sensitve keys triggers a vibration whenever the keys are being triggered. It sort of like telling the user that the keys are being accidentally push. Another thing is that both have a microUSB instead of their previous standard miniUSB slot. Both Devices are powered by ARM 11 processors which runs faster than prvious RAZR models.

The two handset versions have certain differences just too give an early notice. The Motorola RAZR2 V8 boasts a new Linux/Java user interface and will be sold in two variants - one with 420MB of memory available to the user, and a second one with 2GB of memory available to the user. Obviously, it won't have a memory cards slot. imagine with that amount of memory on a phone who needs a memory card slot. That depends on other mobile users.

On the other hand the Motorola RAZR2 V9 retains the original Motorola Synergy UI and has only 45MB of memory but has a microSD memory card slot.

Well judging by the good and overwhelming responses towards the last RAZR models, the new V8 and V9 would probably be a hit gadget in market once it is out. The downside of motorola phones is that they do not emphasize on the 3G system. Did I mention that the 2 does not have 3G as well.
The exact date of the availability of the 2 gadgets has not been confirm yet but could be somewhere in MAY/JUNE 2007. I'll keep you all gadget lovers posted AITE? especially to all motorola fans out there. I make sure I'll get the price posted as well.
