Does this thing look like the new LG Chocolate to anyone else, or it it just me? Speaking of, that damn thing is red too. WTF is with red products coming out that aren't part of the RED PRODUCT line benefiting AIDS research anyway? Are they for the "I want to look like I give a damn but not actually pay one cent more then I have to" crowd or what?
Note to all you electronics manufacturers: Guys like two items in that color: Red sports cars, and redheads; that's about it. For everything else, red is feminine and even metrosexuals will generally turn their noses up. Men like Gun metal blue, black, silver, and a few others. Please figure that out. Or at least go back to the oldschool nokia way of doing things, and let us decided with interchangeable faceplates.
On a final note, whats with the buttons anyway? You're telling me that for half my paycheck, that's the best you can do? Don't tell me that size is an issue, because I've seen phones that cost half as much sold on the streets of Taiwan that make this thing look like a 15 year old brick phone but still have real functional buttons. Does Motorola even hold focus groups before designing these things, and if so, who are they inviting? Seeing how your market share continues to drop like a stone, maybe it's time to switch things up before you have to fire another 1000+ employees. Thats just my two cents anyway.
