Motorola today announced the i580, its most feature-packed ruggedized iDEN phone to date. Like many rugged iDEN phones, the i580 meets military specs blowing rain, dust, shock and vibration. Features include Bluetooth, a 1.3 megapixel camera, and a microSD memory card slot. The i580 also includes new PTT features, including "Push-to-Smart Replies" and "Push-to-Meet". Push-to-Smart Replies allows users to send a text message using PTT, while Push-to-Meet allows users to send Datebook reminders via PTT. The i580 is expected to be available in the 2nd quarter.

This looks like a good phone

It's nice to see a water resistant ruggedized phone with a 1.3 mp camera. It probably has some other good features on it too. But still, ruggedized phones have a ways to go before they start getting the really cool stuff built in. It's a shame.

How can anyone like those IDEN phones... they are the ugliest things out there.... The keypad sucks... the screen sucks (usually too small) and the phone is bulky.... Why cant they make a RAZR-like IDEN phone???

Just my 2 cents
