Document seen on the FCC site reveal details about the Motorola Z6c World Edition for Verizon Wireless. It includes dual-band 800/1900 CDMA/EV-DO radios as well as dual-band 900/1800 GSM radios for roaming in Europe and Asia.

The FCC documents do not indicate when the Z6c will go on sale or how much it will cost.
