Smart phone is in final stages of delivery

At the Gartner ITxpo in San Francisco, Motorola CEO Ed Zander tells Gartner analysts Nick Jones and Ken Dulaney that the company's "Q" smart phone has taken longer to deliver than expected. It is about a week away from hitting the market, he says. The smart phone was announced last July and has been billed a BlackBerry killer.

HAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

Your a retard, my Windows Mobile phone is awsome, navigation just flows on this phone, every other phone I have ever used has awful, I mean awful navigation.

The outlook intergration absolutley blows blackberry out of the water, it hyper links phone numbers in the body of my emails and in one press I cam calling them, same goes for emails in a message, one press and I am sending them a email, not sure what all the crying is about blackberry, I had a blackberry and windows mobile is much much better, and lastly I have never had windows mobile crash on me, ever, you just be thinking of windows ce 1.0 or somethhing]]>May 19th 2006 12:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/verizon-motorola-q-not-launching-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/verizon-motorola-q-not-launching-next-week/
I'm glad that you enjoy your windows mobile phone, but the features that you mentioned (clickable ph#'s/emails) are available on blackberry's also. I a drawer full of them, and specifically a VZW 7250, that does exactly those things - I used the phone number dialing one this morning... Honestly, having recently tested all the current windows mobile 5 offerings, and all the current BB offerings, I really do prefer the blackberries. The form factor and ease of use seem much better, and I also really like BES (once it's set up. setup is a bit of a bitch). Now, if only there was a RDP client for blackberries...]]>May 19th 2006 3:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/verizon-motorola-q-not-launching-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/verizon-motorola-q-not-launching-next-week/

Chill out with the brandwhoring.

Anyways, even with my NE2 $100 credit, its still gonna be $200 if i decide to buy, yikes!]]>May 22nd 2006 11:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/verizon-motorola-q-not-launching-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/verizon-motorola-q-not-launching-next-week/
Oh, and there are EVDO and EDGE blackberries. The 7250 I mentioned before is EVDO, as is the 7130, and the 8700 is EDGE.

Lastly, the PocketAdmin software that was pointed out is remote admin software, but it's not an native RDP client, it's its own thing. I would actually choose Idokorro for that over PocketAdmin.]]>May 22nd 2006 7:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/verizon-motorola-q-not-launching-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/verizon-motorola-q-not-launching-next-week/
Lo and behold, 4 months after it was released, Palm FINALLY released the patch to enable MSFP. Yet I've read in many reviews that the Q "works with Exchange" - I call that hogwash. Yes it "functions" with Exchange, but let's see what it can't do...

1. Access the GAL

2. No "direct push" - SMS eats the battery. Complaint from my users without MSFP enabled devices.

3. No encryption

4. No remote wipe in the event the device is lost/stolen

And in the reviews I've read, MSFP is supposedly going to be a patch for the Q. What are these developers doing on a daily basis that they can't release a product that actually WORKS OUT OF THE BOX with technology that has been available for over 8 months?! Hats off to motorola.

And for all the WM5 fanbois out there - I have a Palm 700w. It sucks. WM5 sucks - it crashes, it's unintuitive to a non-techy user.

I had a BB 7750 before that - it was slow but at least it didn't crash (as much.) Of course, it couldn't play music or take crappy pictures, and it was as slow as molasses moving around. The Internet browsing on BlackBerry's is attrocious and they too release patches that break functionality (see most recent 4.1 for 7250's).

Both have their +/- but coming from BlackBerry, I expected to be using a BlackBerry killer - admittedly, I'm happier now with MSFP than before, but resetting my device every few days doesn't inspire confidence.]]>May 26th 2006 10:29AM
