Motorola Napoleon Q9: Verizon’s World Phone
Man, Motorola just can’t keep a lid on anything anymore can they? We’ve got a hold of a phone codenamed the “Napolean” and it’s a CDMA EV-DO Rev. A Q9 with full GSM world roaming capabilities. This even includes the U.S. 850MHz/1900MHz bands! Even though it’s Verizon branded and will launch on Verizon, we loaded in our AT&T SIM and away we went. We’ve found the following specs on the phone so far: fingerprint scanner (seriously, on the back), Windows Mobile 6.1, EV-DO Rev. A, quad-band EDGE, 2 megapixel camera with flash, stereo speakers, 320×240 resolution screen, Wi-Fi, and a 1500mAh battery. The keyboard isn’t as good as the first Q9 or Q9m, and the d-pad is incredibly stiff and difficult to use. Sound sounded good though, and the screen seems to be the same as the original Q9s. We’ll keep diggin’, but in the meantime, take a look at a gallery, ok?

Can we please get some more info on this handset? I really want to know more!
What are the dimensions for the Motorola Napoleon?? Will it be as slim as the Q9c??
what ever happened to this phone i would really like to know cause this would have been one of the best phones on verizon besides the storm, omnia, and touch pro
Any news on this phone??? The wait is excruciating, I need this phone for Exchange OTA and global roaming at work (and yes I did buy the Saga but can’t stand winmo pro).
If your still interested in purchasing a motorola napoleon, i have one for sale brand new for $300, if interested contact me at POLO434@aol.com
I had the fortune to get one of these today from a guy I did a trade with. So far I love it, it is easy to navigate and use. If this ever does come out I am sure it will do great.
This phone will no longer be released. it was cancelled last minute before moto laid off a couple thousand employees.
Keep watchin’ ebay !!! They are there – NEW !!!
I GOT ONE !!!!!!!!! -Q
oh wow..the center button is actually a button. i thought it was a ball.
This seems like such a great phone. i really want it, but i do not want to spend $300 on a phone…
I bought one on eBay. I inserted my AT&T SIM card and it doesn’t work. Does anyone know how to get this phone to work?
