I wonder which features North American providers will decide to cripple or exclude from service? I happen to be the proud owner Motorola V600 for two years with Rogers Communications (GSM). Not one picture or message containing multimedia successfully sent or received. Perhaps my next phone purchase will be put off for another two years. Sounds like enough time for Canada's only national GSM provider (Rogers) to catch up. I am sure the appropriate firmware or unlocking utilities would be available within' two weeks of a launch of such a featured device, such as the one pictured above.
