MotoRIZR Z8 released at 3GSM

Motorola has re-entered the Symbian/UIQ arena with the MotoRIZR Z8 launch that runs on UIQ 3. Touted to be the first ever “kick slider” handset from Motorola, the Z8 boasts a graceful mechanism that glides open in a curve which matches the natural contour of your face for a more comfortable conversation. The Motorola Z8 features a 2 megapixel camera, tie-ins with mobile data-based TV, HSDPA connectivity, a superb 16 million color QVGA display, 90MB of internal memory, and a microSD memory card slot. Will cellphones be taking a curved approach from now on, like how Nokia’s banana handset made a splash on the global stage when Neo in The Matrix endorsed it?
