MOTOFONE : so NOT packed with features

If you're like me, barely-there megapixel cameras, neon-color screens, and so-so MP3 players are the bane of your cell-phone existence.The stunningly simple, yet-to-be released Motofone will be geared towards first time wireless users, prepaid buyers, and developing countries (Hey-I want one too). The slim and trim 0.35" profile, sun and dust resistance, and an "extended" battery life are some attributes that the user can actually benefit from.

I found the statement "geared towards... developing countries" quite alarming. Obviously the marketing department there has never been to a third world nation...having spent most of my life in various developing countries I can tell you - only the very best phones will do.

Shame it's a Motorola though: crappy software with UI impossible to use, a predictive text system that thinks every sentence ends in the numeral '1' and a keypad that malfunctions more often than not.

If Apple doesn't make an iPhone soon I'll be in the market for one of these.
Simpler really is better.
Finally!
