Motorola RAZR2 Luxury Edition

Motorola certainly has a penchant for releasing luxury handsets, and this time it is the RAZR2’s turn to benefit from a Luxury Edition. This clamshell handset comes enhanced with 18- and 24-carat gold plating on the hinge and accent points, while the black shell boasts pinstripes around the external touch display and a back texture that resembles a snakeskin. You get 2GB of internal memory, bundled along with a gold-accented H680 Bluetooth headset and leather case to announce to the world that you’ve arrived. This Luxury Edition is based on the V8 version and sadly does not feature 3G access, so Internet surfing speeds top out at measly EDGE. No word on pricing, but Motorola is expected to sell the handset in selected regions this fall. Are you picking one up?
