Motorola's Renew for T-Mobile is as boring as it is green

by Chris Ziegler posted Jan 1st 2009 at 8:48AM

A quick glance at this positively anonymous Moto candybar isn't going to stir any emotion, but a closer look reveals something pretty important -- as its name implies, the W233 "Renew" is made from a lot of renewable stuff. Both the packaging and the phone itself are made of materials designed to reduce impact on our lovely planet, a trend picking up a nice head of steam in the mobile biz these past couple years. Rumor has it this low-spec (and hopefully low-cost) handset will be launching on February 4 -- much to Mother Nature's relief, we're sure. Good to see that whole environmental crisis is solved now, eh?

Tmobile, it looks so modern for 2009. You [Tmobile] have such a great marketing team to bring out the best of the best, that all mobilers look forward to seeing when they fight to come into Tmobile stores. The Tmobile Sales Associates are going to love selling these modern-looking mobiles. I bet the lines will be around the corner at every Tmobile store on release day. I hope Tmobile ordered plenty of this 2009 winner.

I cannot wait until my T-Mobile contract expires. I give up. It's 2009, and T-Mobile gets us a Dash color refresh. Oh, but we have the G1...and nothing else.
