The article hints towards it being a flip phone, but it looks NOTHING like a flip phone.
:confused:

I guess everyone has their own preferences. I personally would like to keep my camera and phone seperate unless they can come up w/ a 5 megapix camera/phone that keeps the whole thing at a decent size.

I love my Powershot G3, but I also love my SE K750i (loved because it's dead now), but that 2MP beast was all I needed in school. I let my parents have the camera because with a 2MP camera phone, I was set.

I think most of you are still using VGA camera phones, if not those horrible QVGA phones. Some of you have used the 1.3MP phones, but they are terrible. SE makes the best 2MP phones right now, and even the N90 cannot compete. Check out the K750i/W800i's pictures sometime... they are awesome.

I played w/ the SE K750i. I thought it was ok, but since I dont take that many pictures, I would rather have a low profile phone that I carry daily and a digicam that I would just take on occasion. But i think if you take a bunch of picturesa ll the time the SE K750i is a great solution

im actually the opposite. i dont take that many pictures, so having a camera around is nice for the spontaneous (sp?) moments that require a pic. the phone itself is really small and low profile (k750 is). people dont know that my phone has a camera until i open the slider door.

I like flip phones myself, so I'm not interested in this thing. The Razr is just so slim and light, I can't help but love it.

To me it looks like it has a large footprint when folded ie if you have it in some fitted jeans and you lean forward it's going to be intrusive. I think being slim (horizontally) is as important as being thin (depth)...

No it sits pretty flush with my thigh. Unless you have really thin legs...

Hmm, maybe I didn't describe it right. If you imagine sitting down and your pocket instead of going down the outside of your leg (along the thigh) actually goes on the top of your leg (so that if you have your hand in the pocket it's going right towards your crotch), I think a wider phone would be less comfortable. I'll go into a phone shop this lunchtime and try it out, if they let me...

And for the record, I'm a cyclist and my thighs are *awesome* (can post pics if desired).

THe phone isn't that wide to the point where its bothersome. But the thinness makes it so that it doesn't bulge out of your pockets

This phone plays a big part in an XBox 360 game that my buddy was playing last night. Don't remember the game, but it was very Sanitarium-Like.

Tmobile just released a new RAZR phone that is bulkier than the current RAZR flip. It looked fugly.
