*** MOTOROLA RAZR ***

[Caseh]

I could go for the GN, and the instant updates are obviously a big plus. However, I can't help but look at the Razr and think that if I didn't get it, I would regret it later on. The GN may be the better phone, but I like what I like.

I hope CPW get the Razr on the demo stands in stores, would like to check one out in store

I listen to a lot of radio

Does anyone know if this will have an FM radio, seems to be conflicting reports with nearly all of the big gadget sites like GSM Arena etc reporting it does but the official Motorola specs page makes no mention of it?

I'm just hoping its a case that the US version doesnt have it because of carrier restrictions or something and the UK version does have it because it unbranded?

If it doesn't it will have internet radio, well I'm sure there will be an app for it

which isn't so good when you have a data plan and also requires decent phone reception.

I hate this phone so much! I want to buy a phone that is going to be updated in decent time, but every time I see a picture of it, I don't care about that

But weren't the atrix crowd told for a long time that they would get gingerbread, but still no sign of it?

Yes, but that was before Google bought Motorola and before they announced the 'Android updates guarantee' or whatever it's called.

It'll get ICS, it may not be really early in 2012, but I'm sure it will get it at some point.

very reassuring - not

very reassuring - not

So you have zero faith in Google and Motorola?

Dammmmmm, that's bad. Even SE have have gingerbread on there devices now. I think Motorola need to start releasing updates before people believe in them much like SE have upper their game.

To be fair America has had 2.3 for quite awile.Motorola is saying mid November for 2.3 here,supposedly it's Orange that is holding it up here not Motorola.

Google - yes. Motorola - no. Doesn't matter though, I'll still end up getting the phone, it's too damn nice!

What about all the unlocked phones? They wont even get ota gingerbread when it comes.

Are you talking about "rooted" phones? I don't know about ota updates once phones are rooted.

I think he probably meant sim free.
