With CABO making a strong case for iDEN sticking around for a bit longer (probably to Motorola’s relief – they’re something of a big-dog in the iDEN world), it looks like troubled Motorola has already refreshed their recently released Motorola i335.
We’ve peeped a couple spy shots of the updated/refreshed Motorola i335 and it’s
looking a lot sleeker than we remember. The keypad seems to have been revised with a flush, less bumpy design and the feature-set has been kicked-up a notch to include a VGA camera, updated Bluetooth, and improved music capabilities.
We’re hearing that Q4 2008 is the targeted launch window for this revised Motorola i335, so iDEN fans contemplating a new entry-level handset might do well to wait it out for this sleeker i335 to hit the market.
Side thought: Is Motorola trying to gussy up their mobile phone division to appear more appetizing to potential buyers? Or are they keeping their ducks in line in case they decide to stick it out in the handset manufacturing business?
