Motorola i465 Clutch coming soon to a Sprint store near you

It looks like Boost Mobile subscribers won’t be the only ones enjoying this homely entry-level messaging handset. We first saw the Motorola Clutch i465 get official late last month on Boost, becoming the Sprint-owned carrier’s first QWERTY handset. Sprint already has a viable QWERTY option in its Nextel line of course with the BlackBerry 8350i, but two is never a crowd — especially when one is dirt cheap. Yep, the most appealing i465 feature beyond the keypad will likely be an extremely low price point of $39.99 out the door after rebates. That price will get you threaded SMS and MMS, POP3 email support, Bluetooth, a VGA camera, Direct Connect and not much else. As for when you can get your mitts on one, “Summer” is all we’ve got for the time being.

    How dumb of an esquire can you be to claim first (like a child) when you’re 3rd. I bet you have a very empty case load.

    More like “Crutch” cus you’re not gettin any puss when they see you with this. They should require all the “1st” to get beat with that for an hour, then make them use it.

    Phel- Outside the USA, Esquire doesn’t usually denote a lawyer. It is typically used when one doesn’t have a greater title, and is one of the only ones that can just be “picked up” vs. something like Lord or Knight.
