The fate of the Motorola Napoleon had been in question, but is clearly still due to land on Verizon after going through FCC testing. Bearing the A4500 model number, this Windows Mobile handset follows closely behind it Motorola Q predecessors, and has a good shot at taking up the mantle when Verizon picks it up. As if it didn’t tread closely enough to BlackBerry, it’s even carrying “World Edition” branding. Still, it’s a decent smartphone, looking at the specs:
- World-roaming, quad-band GSM, EV-DO
- Wi-Fi, GPS, Stereo Bluetooth
- Windows Mobile 6.1
- 2 megapixel camera
- Fingerprint scanner
We still haven’t heard an official peep from Motorola or Verizon, but you can check out the FCC for a closer look.
