Well, I'm not sure Motorola knows where there head is at. If things smell like shi* then it's where everyone thinks it is, up your a**. Seriously Motorola after the razor you died. I hope you can at least follow some of our leading providers and duplicate their success!

Motorola can totally make a comeback and kill all the leading providers. Samsung is ahead because they release simple crappy cheap phones and put it on VZW (the largest network) and that's how they reach the top but releasing shitty phones after another and climbing to the top. I support Moto and I hope they make a great series of phones, that everyone wants!!!

The problem with Motorola isn't necessarily their software, it's the fact that their designs are staunchy and boring. Enough RAZRs. It was great while it lasted, out with the old and in with the new.

i would personally love to see MOTO come out with something very new like what they havent really tried before. Example, something like the HTC models with the touch pro.

verizon does have some pretty crappy phones like the samsung glyde. the highly over-rated dare thats best feature is drag n drop. And they'll probly keep coming out with chocolates and envys too.

you realize carriers dont make phones right? and that you obviously have no grasp of the cellular world?

u do realize that verizon's offered phones are that of a catchy song on a hits radio station that are targeted at 16 yr old high school kids...that is why verizon has a consumer base. Every verizon customer i know has an envy. And as for everyone else who thinks verizon is the best because jd power said so is a complete moron. #8 is a twink.

Think about it though, they are marketing phones to people who are typical, that dont necessarily know what is the latest and greatest, dont look through websites like this, and only really want what they see on television or see someone around carring. So you get cheap flashing phones and then throw the money you saved from purchasing the handsets and throw it into alittle advertising with appealing images. Then BAM genius idea because instead of getting great phones and hoping your sales reps can persuade possible new customers and sell the phone you are actually almost letting the phone sell itself and the sales reps just pulling boxes from under the counter and in the back for the line of customers that you normally never would have sold to if it wasnt for your commercials. The wonderful world of marketing and advertising, its alittle like highschool peer pressure all over again.

well its been said that leaders are not followers, so if moto follows other companies' success not backing their own technology then it'll remain behind...
