This could just be a prototype, of course. A petition would be a bit over the top, to be honest. It's a lot easier to show companies how much you dislike their products by simply not buying them.

less "need-more-sunlight"-level geeky, too

Last I heard Apple has been activeley working with motorola for almost a year now and in fact the razr phone was a joint coperative effort of apples designers and motorolas guys. So, Tomorrow will be a special day in everyones hearts... someone let the bat out of the bag to early sir john.

Today, in a Swiss "SMS-Guide" booklet, I've seen the E790 mentioned. The picture looked _very_ similar (also pearl-white) but without the iTunes button. The text for the phone mentioned it would be available in July 2005 and one specialty was "compatibility with Apple I-Tunes" (sic!). I guess an announcement can't be too far away.

the V3 is hideous IMO. yes, it's thin, but it compromises virtually every other aspect of the phone's aesthetics doing this. it's overly wide, and that 'blob' is disgraceful. the mirrored keypad is tacky, and there's tiny buttons on the side of the thinnest phone in the world!? if Jonothan Ive had a hand in that, i'll eat my hat (and i have dreadlocks, so my hats are manky)

This will be best on the V6 Pebl -

its strange that a few months Motorola had a flash presentation of the fone - but its now vanished... but if you google the name you can find images of it...

its a great looking motofone...

The PEBL's just a rounder Moto flip-cover phone. Nothing to do with either the E790 or iTunes as far as I can see...

well thats the thing - i get the feeling that the E790 is being used a test machine - or that we'll see a revamped E790.

when it launched it'll need to be launched in a big way- not on a fone that's pretty darn bland and 'normal'.

the Pebl actually uses a totally new way of 'flipping' open - its a smooth self-flip' motion - sure its rounder - buts it has innovation in its design and form - more of a 'wow' factor when released...
