No - the platforms were already built and running with other carriers. WiderThan with SK Telecom in Korea and Groove Mobile with Orange in Europe.
Flamer, if you really worked in the industry and didn't spend all day in your jammies reading Engadget, you'd know that VZW and Sprint DID NOT create their own delivery system and DO NOT keep all the money after label royalties. The VZW system is powered by WiderThan and Sprint's by Groove Mobile (who both keep part of the revs, I'm sure).
How does this kill the Q in size? This puppy is FAT.
otakucode, are you serious? Terrestrial radio is free because you have 20 min of commercials per hour, listened to by millions of people. XM and Sirius are still losing $ despite your $13/mo. And you've obviously never watched cable (aka paid) TV.
These phones aren't on sale yet, and they certainly won't cost this much. I'm guessing similar to early RAZR pricing ~$500.
Actually, Motorola has done different colors for good causes:

And Donald, don't bite the hand that feeds you - without all the varieties you would have precious little to write about...
"the perfect location for Verizon to test-market its "$199 with a 2-year contract or your soul" promotion on the Q."

Come on, Chris. Don't be such a hater. Carriers have been pushing 2-yr contracts for ages now. Pull your head out of the sand.
#4 - It'll be much better than the RAZR? Jeez, I hope so. The RAZR platform is two years old. These asians are a day late and a dollar short. Blade, Katana? Real original, guys.
You guys are all suckers. You really think the commercial name for this phone will be SCPL? Motorola, like all companies, uses internal code names for products before marketing gets hold of them. And did you ever hear Zander himself refer to anything Scalpel in the Crain article? No...

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I own an iPhone 3G and I'm looking for a decent speaker / alarm clock for it. I am going to listen music in a mid-sized room, so I want nice quality speakers with solid bass. I also want to use it as an alarm clock, so it would be great if there is such a feature. The price can be low-mid to mid-high range. I was looking at the Klipsch iGroove SXT; it's powerful, slick and the reviews are good, but it doesn't have an alarm clock feature. It's no deal breaker if I can set it up from the iPhone, but I'm not sure. Thanks!"
