What have you forsaken me MOTO?

Let's call the whole thing off. My vote is for the CNRY (you know, CaNaRY... not CaNneRY, or CoNRoY. But the Sean CNRY edition would be badass.

KRZR? What the heck?

I'm guessing it's "Cruiser," although I'm not sure why Moto would name a phone that. It's also the first time Moto will have actually changed letter in their 4LTR names (C -> K, S -> Z).

Maybe I'm wrong - the first thing I thought was "Crazier," but that makes even less sense.

I think our Boy Genius is wrong here. Unless someone else can explain to me what it means, "KRZR" simply breaks to many of Moto's naming rules (and yes, they do have naming rules).]]>Jun 27th 2006 9:50PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/
I highly doubt that verizon would be getting it first since a GSM market covers more people world wide.

In some of your links that you have posted above, a lot of the information is no longer true, the primary one being that they new treos that are coming out will not be the "hollywood" or the "lowrider". ]]>Jun 27th 2006 9:52PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/Jun 28th 2006 12:57AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/
"Kruschev?"]]>Jun 28th 2006 12:49PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/
i love the name KRZR it's so fierce. sounds like Crazer, something that creates a craze. it's also cool because it recalls RAZR. you could call it RZR2 but that would be boring. CNRY is way not fierce enough, it needs to evoke thinness, speed and dynamism.

very interesting on the vz front, maybe they finally realized it was bullsh*t they wait years after gsm providers to release comparable phones. just hope they don't market it as k1c, how boring :/]]>Jun 29th 2006 5:58PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/here's a new one for motorola: WTF?
ooh! and for the next phones, how about LOL!, ROFL, and TTFL.
as in: the design of the phone made me Laugh Out Loud, then trying to figure out the phone's name produced some hilarious ideas that had me Rolling On the Floor Laughing, and then I said f*** this and waved Ta-Ta Forever, Losers to motorola and their God-forsaken naming department. howzabout a mandatory round of drug testing before motorola names another phone, or maybe we should just call it by the model number: v... v... uh... well, let's just call it a v4.
after all, the v400 was a (mediocre) improvement on the v300, so i guess this would work.
i'm holding out for the capri- wait, i'm sorry, the CPRI. now pardon me while i remove the shift keys and caps lock key from my keyboard and melt them in the toaster oven.]]>Jun 30th 2006 4:05PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/
i'm sure you were refering to metaphysics when you chose the word "dynamism" in your, um, fierce post. perhaps evoking some more of that speed will assist you in gaining the energy required to look up those big words in a dictionary.

when you're done, pass it to moto. they're obviously in dire need of one, as well.]]>Jul 21st 2006 6:23PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/Jul 28th 2006 1:04PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/Jul 29th 2006 8:43PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/
Im sticking with my A900 until more thin phones have cameras with a flash on them and external media controls, which out of all ultra thin clamshells i can think of, only A900 and R MAXX have, and R MAXX isnt CDMA(i get free sprint service, add a line on a SERO family plan is soooooo worth it.)
but if the k1m has a flash on the camera, i'll trade in merely for the microSD slot and because the m610 is fugly.]]>Sep 2nd 2006 11:14PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2006/06/27/the-boy-genius-report-canary-is-krzr-getting-launched-septembe/Sep 27th 2006 1:42AM
