Motorola Charm Coming to T-Mobile August 25th

http://www.tmonews.com/2010/06/motorola-charm-on-its-way/

Droid 2 and Droid X got to Verizon and we might get this?  Wow Moto does not like T-Mo very much.

I am loving this phone's form factor. If the specs are right. Heh.

This may be a front-facing QWERTY version of the Flipout, so there's a Cortex-A8, 320x240 screen. If this takes away RIM sales, I'll be happy. I'm guessing $70-$100 price point.

T-Mobile disses the HD2?

"... return rates go down and customer satisfaction goes up."  lol


even tho this phone isn’t for me, this Android form factor is a first for tmo (is it the first ever?), so its a nice start-off addition.. is this the Moto Brasil that was in the screenshot link? and i see Moto isn't giving T-Mo NinjaBlur.. only regular (social)Blur.. unless NinjaBlur is only for Moto's high-end phones...

Front-facing QWERTY is new to Android. By the way, there's no form of Blur on the Droid X, just a custom skin, a la Sense.

thought so.. and why everyone is calling it NinjaBlur (looks like a Blur Lite)? and Sense is more than just a skin.. u should know that.. same thing for TouchWiz 3.0, it changes more than just looks.

That is one ugly phone

Haha, I actually like the look of it. Definitely unique when compared to other Android phones on the market.

motorola hates us at tmobile.

i was at a company meeting and we had a Moto rep there, telling us about the great new line up and how they were gonna upgrade our current phones to 2.1.

and then he asked if we had any questions as sales reps. 

I said why does motorola still use motorblur... its terrible, most phones already have a way to connect all of your social networks together, and its not very popular to have to make a account just for it.

his response: 2.1 will make it better!

my second questions why are we getting cliq and cliq xt while others are gettin far superior phones

his reponse: we work with tmobiles demographic for teens who can afford great smart phones and want to social network

after that i just gave up b/c the guy was obviously a idiot and spent most of his time asking why motorola product sales have been down in tmobile.

after he was told by many reps that their phones for tmobile sucked he just kept sayin 2.1 would save them.. wrong....

now here we go again with another phone that will be sitting for 2 years until its end of life... right next to the garmin phone.

My sentiments exactly. +1 for ranting about what all of us should be thinking.

Today I walked into the tmobile store in my area and happen to stumble upon the motorola charm display with complete pricing and everything. I asked the manager if the phone was available to purchase and he said yes. I told him that the phone was delayed until august due battery issues his reponse was that he hasn't heard about that battery problem but did say that some stores will be recieving them early than expected.

I manage to take the picture with my phone but for some reason I had trouble uploading it on my pc but I did manage to take picture with my actual camera and upload it from there.

Did you also find out pricing as well?

This was the close but no cigar for me, The lack of a decnet camera killed this phone for me. Too bad too, because this is excatly what I was hoping for in a phone, Andriod/touch screen with a hard key board & a lagre expandable memory. Oh well, maybe the next time.

Thread closed. Phone has been released.
