Motorola Marco brings WiFi to the Z3

Motorola's newest slider seems to have slipped out of Schaumburg and right into the waiting grasp of Engadget pal The Boy Genius. The Marco features the same slider case, GSM / EDGE radio, and 2 megapixel camera as the MOTORIZR Z3, but updates the internals with a WiFi chip, making compatibility with T-Mobile@Home entirely possible. In addition, BGR says the JUIX operating system has been tweaked and refined, and that the case seems to have gotten just a hair thicker than before -- something we'll have to confirm when this thing officially launches late this year. Click on for more photos of the Marco doing its WiFi thing.

if it's running the JUIX os/ui, then wouldn't this be closer to a Z6 with Wifi, not a Z3?

It actually slipped out of Libertyville, not Schaumburg...

Nothing interesting happens in Schaumburg (not that the Z3 is interesting, but I digress).

It is an update of the Z6, not Z3. It will be marketed as the Z6i.

Hey, I missed reminding you that JUIX IS STILL DEAD. Confirm with your moto-sources again, and ask them what the two-letter abbrev might be for the OS. ...but that would be like doing your homework. Also, what's the ROKR E7?

JUIX isn't dead... RAZR2 V8 runs it
