After MetroPCS, we have another carrier offering the Motorola Quantico. The rugged clamshell doesn’t impress with its specs sheet, but that’s usually the case with such devices that are primarily made to work under all conditions. In that sense, the military specs-certified Quantico is made from the combination of chrome, glass and rubber – to survive extreme temperatures, dust, shock, and tough weather conditions.
Back to the specs – the Moto-made phone comes with a Bluetooth connectivity support, 2.2-inch 176×220 pixels screen, 1.3-megapixel camera, GPS, music player, 3G radio, large battery (1140 mAh), and a microSD memory card slot. As for the size, it measures 56x94x25 mm (2.2×3.7×1.0 inches) and weighs 119 grams (4.2oz).
U.S. Cellular is asking $99.95 for the Motorola Quantico after a two-year contract and mail-in rebate.

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.
