Pricing:
The phone is extremely costly due to the features and body that can not be compared with the normal phones that are around. It is priced at $1999 at the Motorola stores. And they are going to be released into the market on 4th December 2008, so can be pre-ordered right away if you afford it and don’t want to miss this kind of gadget.

omg. . 2000$ that is too costly but the sleek design and the camera and the 16 million color looks pretty tempting.
The design is really one of its kind, is a must buy but for the price.
$2000 is too much for me I think by the time the phone get it. It will cost even more.
2000$ is huge amount what more can it cost, if they reduce the cost it will give some serious competition to many of the big phones in the business.
@Varun you are right, the design of this phone is very tempting.
Expensive but hot..
I remember motorola had a fone before and it used to open just the same way and that was not expensive.. anyways,, this one is kool
