Motorola Turns Heads With Debut Of The Model
V80
Motorola V80 Defies
Convention With Unique One-Touch Rotating
Form
KRAKOW, Poland – Feb. 6, 2004
– Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT), a global leader in wireless, broadband and
automotive communications technologies, today introduced the innovative Motorola
V80, which delivers a never-before-seen mobile design with a rotating cover that
opens at the touch of a button. Complete with an embedded VGA camera, landscape
photo imaging, photo messaging and integrated Bluetooth® wireless
technology, the new head-turning mobile appeals to consumers who desire to make
a statement with every move.
The tri-band
Motorola V80 defies conventional thinking about mobile phone design. When it is
closed, the V80 showcases a large external color display ideal for playing games
and photo caller id. With a light push of a finger, the cover automatically
rotates to unveil a full-size mobile phone ideal for text messaging and voice
calls. When the moment arises, users can rotate the cover to a 90 degree angle
and automatically set the phone into photo mode. The screen will switch to
landscape mode and pictures can be captured with one simple press of a button.
"The Motorola V80 is designed to tap the
desires of those consumers who crave the perfect intersection of style and
technology,” said Ron Garriques, senior vice president and general
manager, Motorola, PCS, EMEA. “With an eye-catching design, the
style-driven model V80 combines cutting-edge technology features with a unique
form to answer trendsetter's wireless needs by making it easy to talk, text,
take pictures and, most of all, showcase their style.”
The model V80’s MP3 ringtones and
situational lighting help consumers bring their own personality to the handset.
Attach your favorite song or lights to your friend’s number so you are
alerted when they call or play your favorite JAVA™ games arcade-style with
flashing lights.
