Yet another new Motorola 3G phone
Is Motorola out of control, or what? It feels like all the cellphone news these days is about one of their new phones. Guess they wanted to dominate the 3GSM trade show. Anyway, what may or may not be the last handset of theirs we hear about this week is the Moto E1000. It's a new 3G phone with Push-to-Talk, but we're hesitant to call it a smartphone as it looks like it's merely running an extra big version of Moto's 3-button interface rather than a proper PDA-like operating system. Why extra big? Because this thing has a 320x240 pixel screen, which you're not going to find on too many other phones like this. (Say it with me in your best Kindergarten Cop imitation, "It's not a touchscreen.") Like Moto's other 3GSM belles, the E1000 has a 1.2 MP camera with a flash, expandable memory (using the new T-Flash card standard), and Bluetooth. Despite the big screen and the fact that it has more buttons than a Steel Battalion controller, fortunately the E1000 looks more like an easily pocketable candybar-style phone than your typically massive smartphone.
