i would say b/c orig Q9h sales sucked, so a simpler SW upgrade(WM 6.1) and change to the look was done…what would have been nicer was the phone moto had that could seamlessly hand off from VOIP to Cell networks, oh yea, working proto was developed ovr 2 years ago;)(project killed, guess they missed the boat on that one)

yeah but the phone was already out. and the article came out a long time after the q9h was released

Q9h WiFi is NOT a hoax…feature was removed prior to full production

Hello Moto indeed…. that’s the sexiest Q I’ve ever seen. Not like that’s saying anything… but still.

This one looks a lot better than the silver and blue Q9h, but this is an outdated device by now.

Thats strange as of yesterday afternoon the AT&T store still had the old Q listed on its website (I know as I had to go to Motorola’s website to get the specs)..sometime late yesterday, they switched it to the new pix with the new specs….

I like it. I have a Q9h and I can honestly say that it is the best phone that I have ever had. the 6.1 update made it even better. The Blackjack II feels like a cheap toy compared to the Q9h. I think the additional color was a good decision by ATT but it could have come sooner.

strange, we’ve had that on the wall for sale since before you broke the news on here.

No matter how many colors are offered I’ll still pass on that phone.

Its not that bad,i was sent one from Motorola and been using it for about 2 weeks now. I works great and with my exchange server, the new 6.1 interface is pretty cool and it hasent crashed….yet. All an all better then the 1st. The refresher i think was need, but i am still waiting on my Bold

Not sure I’d purchase the phone myself, but I do love the new design. The metallic pinstripes and the silver keyboard.. just my style!

I’d say it was necessary.

looks nice. is there a rest-of-the-world version coming out or is this an att only thing?

fwiw, i’ve always found that the q9h seem to have less (not that there are none, just comparatively fewer) issues than the other win-mo phones.

So the Blackjack II is even cheaper than the Q and still offers a full spectrum of Wireless connectivity!

Now why would Motorola not join the club of a “tri-band” UMTS/HSDPA phone? Its almost like every smartphone maker these days wants to have a product that is truly a world phone. Even if they bumped up the cost a bit I think they could make a compelling case to compete with the likes of Samsung with their Blackjack II.
