Motorola A45 Murano: a QA1 minus the 3G?

What would you get if you took Motorola's QA1 Karma, gutted it of 3G, and dialed up the boxy factor a notch or three? We think you'd end up with something a lot like this, a phone alleged to be the A45 "Murano." The A series is still a rarity in Moto's lineup so we don't have a ton of hardware to compare it with, but one member of the series is Verizon's Rival -- and you can definitely see a little familial resemblance there. Looks like it'll have a 2 megapixel camera, but otherwise, this sucker's a mystery; Motorola's been making moves in Brazil lately, though, so we could definitely buy that this'll end up popping in South America before we see it stateside.

Who they got designing over there? He must be like 3 years old and strongly attached to leapforg toys. That my friend is embarrassing. The sadness is they went from the some of the most cutting edge style to this. This is how the mighty have fallen.

I'm sorry if this passed through my office for testing I would dropkick it out my 3rd floor window and hope that it gets run over by a tractor trailer
