Motorola Krave ZN4 hits the U.S.
From the makers of sleek and sexy cellphones like the RAZR and PEBL, we really wouldn’t expect anything that resembles a bar of soap. Now, Motorola and Verizon Wireless have let loose the Motorola Krave ZN4, which they are marketing as “first interactive clear flip, full-touch phone.” Krave ZN4 is the very first touchscreen cellphone from the house of Motorola, which will see the day’s light in the States. And yes, it’s none other than the previously known Motorola Blaze.
So, what has this dark-titanium gray flip phone got to offer to the U.S. customers? The Krave comes with a horde of features, including Mobile TV, V Cast Video, V Cast Music with Rhapsody support, and VZ Navigator. The sound quality is said to be good enough for the music lovers. But, the problem area is the QWERTY keyboard. You are bound to type with the top cover open and sideways.
Nokia 7110 is low on specs but overpriced
With Nokia 7110 slide, you might be surprised to see such a low range of features offered by any of the Nokia 7000 series handsets. This phone is not meant for the high-end users, but looks good enough for normal use. The handset has been featured on a Czech mobile website. After taking a look at the tech specs and pricing for the Nokia 7110, I don’t think you will find this handset really worth the price.
Technical Specifications: Triband GSM/EDGE, QVGA display, 1.3 megapixels camera, microSD slot, FM radio, Bluetooth.
Pricing and Availability: The rumored retail price of the Nokia 7100 slide will be 200 euro, but that is bit indigestible considering the run-of-the-mill specs list. The phone might hit the shelves by the end of the year.
