I Tire of Motorola

Having not seen the Motorola announcements before they happened at CTIA, I still held a glimmer of hope that the manufacturer would release something decent from the show, after a string of nothing but new colors, and missing 3GSM totally. What did I get?

New colors.

The only announcements from Motorola were three new colors for the RAZR V3i, the V3m (which is just a V3c with a memory card slot), and a new low-end handset that takes queues from the PEBL.

I’m sick of Motorola.

The handset business of Motorola is getting by on the success of the RAZR, so the company is getting lazy. There is a lack of innovation coming from the manufacturer, and eventually the RAZR is going to fade away – if the company wants to keep its position in the market, it is going to have to show some interesting devices, or it will be caught with its pants down.

We can’t go on forever waiting for the Q.
