The Boy Genius report: Capris for the Oscars

Field report tidbits from Engadget's resident mobile insider, the Boy Genius.

Word has it Motorola will be annoucing the Canary on July 17th, and will be giving out 500 Limited Edition Capris in for next year's Oscar gift bags. Who knew!

I don't really like the direction Motorola went with the canary making it less wide and longer. But the capri seems kinda cool because it will be like the cool older sister of the razr (im considering the slvr as the ugly step-sister).

Oh common how can u think the SLVR is ugly, it is one of the slimmest, cooolest phones i have ever seen.....i almost bought one but i am waiting for the RAZR V3i to come out within the next few days, which it is.....But yah, the canary is ugly, because of its widthness and its plasticy look.....the capri is sweet looking, but i personally dont like sliders or candy bars, so i wouldnt only buy the RAZR out of the bunch.

THEY NEED AN UPDATED OS! OR FORGET IT

James-Absolutely.
To say Motorola's OS is cumbersome and maddening is a ridiculous understatement.
