Motorola Krave ZN4

[chasinglib]

A new Phone from Verizon

The Motorola Krave ZN4 offers an all-in-one-of-a-kind mobile experience. It is the first touch device to feature an interactive clear flip letting you access the touch screen underneath even with the phone closed. Open or closed, you'll be watching, listening, creating and communicating. Flip through pictures with the touch of a finger. Feel every tap of a touch key with the tactile response of haptic feedback. See ringtones and voicemails instead of just hearing them. With no regard for convention, the Motorola Krave ZN4 bows only to the limits of your passion and imagination.

When I first heard the sales pitch on these, I wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry - the flip's enhanced utility vs. the Ming line, and haptic feedback, are great ideas and ought to be implemented elsewhere, but this phone just goes to show how behind the times tech is in the U.S. This thing doesn't have half the brains the A1200 does and it's come out so much later - I'm sure that it won't be priced gently. Why do you think big international corps like Motorola don't want to up the ante and jump the competition in the States?

I think the haptic feedback and interactive flip are brilliant, but with the dumbed-down OS and (in my opinion) less-than-elegant design when compared to the Ming line, it seems like Motorola knows that U.S. users don't expect more, and is willing to simply rest on their laurels.
