EXCLUSIVE: Details on Nextel's i930 Smartphone from Motorola
Posted by Robert Levy in "HARDWARE" @ 05:02 PM
Earlier today we linked to Gizmodo's information on the new i930 Smartphone from Motorola which Nextel is planning to sell. We've now received additional leaked photos and details about this device. What excites me most about this device is that the top right image appears to show a half-sized external display featuring a photo caller ID feature. Interestingly, this isn't mentioned in the "Features" list below. Either way, the i930 is not expected to be available until the end of next year so it could be a long time before we learn any more.On the down side, these images show the device running Smartphone 2002 (as opposed to the much improved Smartphone 2003) and there is no mention of Bluetooth support.Product Placement
