AT&T Goes Platinum On Motorola RAZR V3xx

AT&T has gone Platinum! Well, at least that’s the newest color variant of their Motorola (NYSE: MOT) RAZR V3xx - the 3G version of the Motorola RAZR v3, a downright staple of wireless operators. The only changes from the older versions are the official AT&T (NYSE: T) branding and the cool new color - and it really is the best choice, who wants boring charcoal or tacky gold? Of course, you’re gonna pay a premium to have the newest color - which is the whole point of releasing new colors anyway - so pony up for some platinum, baby!

Are you serious!?
Who gives a flying fart about the razor?
I bought one when it first came out several years ago and found it to be a pain! The menu was especially cumbersome and I have sampled a few recent units at my T-Mobile provider’s store, and found them STILL wanting.I went back to Samsung because it was just easier to use…
The iPhone is cool and sure, has a fancy-smachy touch and flow inteface-but it’s the intuitive GUI that Apple is well known for that KEEPS people coming back and SWITCHING. If the iPhone wasn’t intuitive to use, it would not sustain such a strong and growing following.
Look at the price for god’s sake…high end stuff doesn’t get bought by THAT may people… unless it really has something special.
Motorola has the same problem as GM and the rest of Detroit, and many other American Companies: “Ring The Bell” with a hot product and milk it until it’s so dead a hungry dog would walk past it.
Look at what Toyota does: Has creativity in the pipeline and gives itself options, ie. Tundra vs Prius.
Toyota is flexible enough to cut back production of the Tundra and in process of increasing the Prius to meet NEW MARKET CONDITIONS! Plus, they treat their employees with RESPECT, ie. no job cuts AND redeployment to other employment activities.
What is Motorola doing to anticipate and adjust to NEW MARKET CONDITIONS?
I’d love to hear a change of heart in how they do business. Please guys, get out of first gear and restore dynamic thinking to Motorola-instead of suing previous employees and looking like a whiner instead of a doer. Sure the guy is going to probably pass on some secrets, but why did he leave in the first place? Does it make sense or am I off base-I welcome a reply: mean or constructive. That tells me that at least you are paying attention and considering a new direction.
Hopful Trails,
