Motorola MOTORIZR Z3 now on Vodafone Germany

by Chris Ziegler, posted Nov 9th 2006 at 3:41PM

With the MAXX and V3xx both coming out of the woodwork recently and into customers' hands, it's already been a helluva week for Motorola launches -- but there's no rest for the wicked. The MOTORIZR Z3, alternatively known in some circles as the RAZR slider (but not that RAZR slider), has gone ahead and dropped on Vodafone Germany for the reasonable sum of €100 on contract (about $128). Though the RIZR falls behind its launch-mates with nothing more than old skool EDGE data to its name, it's a solid alternative to the K1 KRZR for those that prefer sliders and just can't bear to give up that Moto look. Here's hoping the Voda launch is only the first of many in the next few weeks, eh?

Dear God;

Please help motorola to STOP releasing these goddamned phones three times a week so I can at some point paruse my favorite tech/gadget blogs without having to read a new article EVERY time one is released. It has long ago surpassed mere annoyance and is now in the realm of utter vexation. I just can't do it anymore. Please help.

Ps.

If god doesn't help me out, then could you guys at my beloved engadgetmobile.com just start compiling all this MOTORAZRRIZRKRV nonsense into one weekly roundup post perhaps? It kills me to have to sort through 3 articles on those terrible and TIRED phones to find 1 article on something else.
Love you guys though! :)

Please keep the Moto posts coming. I actually like to get news about new phones as soon as possible, whatever the manufacturer.

Its about time we heard some news on the RIZR. Recently its been all about the KRZR and the MAXX but the one I have been looking forward to has been this one. Any news from our good friends at the FCC recently about this getting approved? (They have until I upgrade in March to get this out... so GET ON IT FCC)

srw985, no it's not. I've been in to carphone warehouse and it's not even released in the UK yet AFAIK. It's not on vodafone's UK site either. It's supposed to arrive mid-november, so were looking at this week and beyond.
