Motorola is developing a new version of the RAZR2 with AT&T’s navigation services in mind, says Engadget. Called the RAZR2 V9x, the phone would add the assisted GPS mapping of the Z9 slider to be used with the TeleNav-run AT&T Navigator service. In a unique change, however, the GPS functions would work even through the RAZR2’s external screen and supply directions (though not controls) without having to flip open the handset.
Expectations also have the phone shipping in an all-black color scheme versus the red of the original V9, though the 2-megapixel camera, microSD storage, and software features should largely remain the same. Support for AT&T’s Video Share one-way video calling feature may be added out of the box, however.
Launch information for the V9x isn’t provided along with the leak, though the existence of press photography along with the conservative hardware upgrade suggests the phone will be introduced in the near future with pricing above the original RAZR2 V9.
Today Motorola officially unveiled the MOTOZINE ZN5. The ZN5 is a bar-style phone similar in shape and appearance to the ROKR E8. The phone’s stand-out feature is its Kodak-branded 5 megapixel camera. The camera has autofocus, and can focus on images in less than a second, allowing you to take your picture quicker. It has a full flash, as well as Kodak-approved optics. It carries Kodak’s Easy Share software, and the user interface for the camera was jointly developed with Motorola and Kodak to ease operation. The software supports a lot of editing features, panorama shooting mode, and easy sharing with social networking sites. All functions related to the camera are color-coded purple, and the keypad morphs when in camera mode to show camera-specific buttons. The ZN5 carries quad-band GSM/EDGE radios, as well as stereo Bluetooth, FM radio and 802.11b/g Wi-Fi. The phone has a slot for a microSD card (supporting cards up to 4GB), 3.5mm headset jack (supporting TV out), a full HTML browser and runs the MOTOMAGX platform. It will be launched in China first, and will be available in the U.S. by the end of 2008. Motorola did not announce its carrier partner for the phone yet.
Motorola’s latest mid-level slider, the ZN200, has shown its face on the FCC’s pages recently. This handset looks like it should offer a decent music experience, with a built-in FM radio, Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP support, and a microSD card slot for expanded storage.
The ZN200 only brings dual-band GSM (850/1900MHz) to the table, however, which hints towards at either T-Mobile or AT&T Mobility here in the U.S. as possible carriers. The user manual shows a 2 megapixel camera, as well as a curious ‘Google Pointer’ icon nestled on the main menu.

Verizon Wireless has both confirmed and launched the W755, a new clamshell phone by Motorola. The phone sports a metal finish, a 1.9-inch display and a 1.3-megapixel camera; its primary feature however is music playback, and to that end touch-sensitive music controls are located on the exterior face of the device. A microSD slot is capable of expanding storage up to 4GB, and audio can be streamed to stereo Bluetooth headsets.
The phone supports AAC, MP3, MIDI and WMA V9 files, and can be synched with PCs using Windows Media Player 11. One limitation, however, is that the 755 uses a non-standard 2.5mm headphone jack; additionally, the phone is not being offered for free, contrary to reports. Instead it costs $70 with a two-year contract and a $50 online discount.
Verizon Wireless has started selling the Motorola W755, a thin clamshell phone with an all-new design. The W755 has most of the same features and specs as the RAZR V3m, but adds stereo Bluetooth and external touch controls for controlling music, Bluetooth, and the ringer. Features in common with the V3m include 1.3 megapixel camera, color external display, microSD memory card slot, and GPS navigation. The W755 is available now in purple and black from verizonwireless.com, for $69.99 with 2-year contract and online discount.
A new bar-style phone from Motorola has cleared the FCC’s approval process. The EM30 is very similar to the MOTOROKR E8, but it loses the omega wheel navigation scroll bar and replaces it with a standard D-pad. Similar to the E8, it has the morphing keypad, which changes depending on which application is being used. Other things confirmed by the FCC documents and accompanying photos are the GSM/EDGE radios, stereo Bluetooth, full 3.5mm headset jack, microSD slot, large internal memory, as well as Motorola’s Crystal Talk technology. No carrier branding was seen on the EM30, but it could work on most GSM/EDGE networks.
