The Motorola i856 Debut has landed at Boost Mobile. We’ve first seen the somewhat stylish slider (for an iDEN device) “in the wild” back in March, and honestly, I’m not sure why it took so long for both Moto and Boost to launch this phone. It’s not like there’s something really special about the Debut. It’s a low-end handset with specs that include 1.3 megapixel camera, Bluetooth, GPS, music player, and a microSD memory card slot. For $169.99, which is the amount Boost is asking, it should find its clientele which for some reason doesn’t want to switch to GSM or CDMA-based carrier…
You can get additional details, including few quotes from Moto’s and Boost’s representatives, from the official press release.

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.
