Default Whatever happened to the RazrBerry? - 10-06-2005, 08:50 AM

Does anyone know whatever became of the RazrBerry? It used to be the dominate BlackBerry rumor before the 8700 but I haven't heard anything about it since mid summer.

It's waiting to be announced/released/sold last week, like the 8700.

The RazrBerry is called the Motorola "Q" as I understand it. It's not going to be called the RazrBerry (that's just a slang name for it)


Thanks,

Mark, I thought the same thing, howerver, Jim Balsillie was quoted in an eWeek article stating the the RazrBerry was not the Motorola Q.
"Balsillie also hinted at a partnership with Motorola Inc., a company that has lately been hailed as a RIM competitor. Motorola last month introduced the Q, a wireless phone with a full QWERTY keyboard, which is similar in form to Motorola’s Razr phone. The Q has been widely reported as “the RazrBerry,” but Balsillie maintains that the RazrBerry is actually the code name of a different device that has yet to be announced. “Q and RazrBerry are not the same product,” he said. “There are some very core differences.”

Really -- that's news to me. If that's straight from the horse's mouth.

Yes this is what has been said. The Q phone is not the RazrBerry, It is definatly a different project slated for a later release date.
