These look awesome.

Anyone have any idea of price range?
And this new Linux/Java user interface. Anymore information about it?

[ycyas]

the same Linux/Java (Juix) User Interface has the E2 rokr already..

500Mhz CPU in V8 and V9
225Mhz CPU in V9m

but 500Mhz CPU and only a max. 950mA battery? that will be not so good and the battery will be finish after 6hours of normal using the phone..lol...

in high tech phones have to be 2000mA batteries!

why does motorola choose the M$ windows media player? i would love much more of using the native Linux mPlayer or mobile xmms.

hope the Native linux Opera browser on these razr phones works also on the e680/i/g EZX phones.

[Kingsford]

Oh you're right. Well how does it compare to the ezx os?
