Variations on a theme: the Motorola KRZR Fire

Motorola has rebuilt its once-diminished empire on the back of the RAZR and its endless variants, milking the platform for absolutely everything it's worth (and beyond, depending on who you ask). Why not continue the trend, then, with the RAZR's heir apparent? The KRZR "Fire" is pretty much like any other KRZR, but with a decidedly crimson appearance to its glossy outer shell. For the time being, the Fire appears to be a Korea-only special, but we'd be surprised -- nay, shocked -- if we didn't get our own full spectrum of KRZRs in these parts of the globe over the next couple years.

"Fire" KRZR will be launched for VZW within the next few months. Count on it.

if the KRZR was actuslly a decent phone, this would be news, but I've actually been losing respect for motorola ever since the 4LTR and MOTOfashion family came out...RIZR, Q, PEBL and SLVR are the only decent 4LTRs, because all the clamshells other than PEBL have the hideous bottom lip. i'd swing for any of those other models, except they all have terrible OSes, i hate the stock moto OS, i hate the verizon UI even more, and i'm not big on WinMo. oh and PEBL and RIZR aren't available for CDMA, and i hate candybars because if you forget to keylock before you put it in your pocket, you're going over on your minutes.

I ordered the motorola krzr fire I should be getting it in the next few days and I cannot wait. I saw it in a verizon store when it came out and I just love the color. It looks like a really nice phone I love the motorola razr I think motorola did great with the new motorola krzr.
