Roughly two months ago we first saw the old-school Moto i776 leaked by Target. Now the external antenna “equipped” clamshell is here, available through Sprint and Boost Mobile.
Let me quickly recap the specs — under the hood, there’s a built-in GPS receiver, Bluetooth, VGA camera, PTT capability, two screens (internal and very small external), and that’s about it. This phone is not just ugly, it’s also crappy in terms of specs — or at least that’s my take. Hopefully, a “dedicated antenna” will boost the reception, though that doesn’t have to be the case at all.
Sprint is selling the device for $79.99 on a two-year contract, while Boost is pushing it for $99.99 on a pay as you go plan…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
