T-Mobile's Motorola RAZR 2 V8 launching October 15?

It has been beaten out by the three other national carriers and Alltel at this point (how humiliating!), but that's not stopping T-Mobile from getting around to launching its very own rendition of the Motorola RAZR 2 next month. According to Boy Genius Report, we can look specifically toward October 15 to get our V8 on through T-Mobile stores. Yep, that's right, we said "V8" -- meaning we can count on MOTOMAGX in place of Synergy for the operating system (a boon for Linux fans) and an utter lack of 3G, logical considering that T-Mobile has yet to roll out its next-gen network. No word on pricing, but we'd expect it to be in line with its neighbors.

Not to mention 2GB of storage!

does it really have 2GB of storage

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 13th 2007 5:12PM]

Yes, it does. Although there are a few models with 512MB becauase Motorola needed to clean out their stock. Probably by that time though, you'll see 2GB models. Not to mention that this will be the best RAZR 2, by far, seeing as it has the aforementioned newer and much (much much much) better OS. Trust me. I've tested the new OS and its spades better. T-Mob may be late, but it has the best of the bunch.

No 3G, therefore definitely NOT the best of the bunch, regardless of UI.

The only reason to care about 3g is if your gonna download songs, and like....who does that? Like, nobody? EDGE is fine for browsing on Opera Mini. 3G connectivity is only necessary for smartphones, not clamshells.

This WILL be the best edition of the Razr 2, period.

Thats right who uses 3G. Our cell phones are not meant to do everything. We have computers, laptops and broadband connection for that. Who wants to see all that on a 2" screen even if it is 3";when we could see it on a 14" or better screen. We are looking for phones that do their job and a little bit extra. I mean thats why we have the other gadgets to do their jobs. Mp3 players to play mp3's, Television to watch tv, computers and laptops to browse the web and maybe listen to some Music Videos and Streaming Video, Cell phones to make call and occasionally to text, cell phones are not meant to take the roll of all those gadgets, you buy those seperately.

What color will this RAZR 2 be?

But no wifi? Isn't that what all the kids are wanting in their phones today? It's what I want. :(

i read somewhere on the internet that the razr2 for t-mobile does not ring/vibrate at the same time, is this true? it will ring or vibrate, but not both at same time. that is what i heard. if it does not do both at same time, i will be very dissapointed. i may have to switch to verizon to get the exact phone that i want.

That sounds pretty retarded if that were true. I doubt someone would take out such a basic feature to phones now. That's like saying there's no Loud, just Soft.
