Motorola Q a LIE!?!?!?!

Okay, I've been dealing with Verizon for some time and have become friends with one of their regional VP's.

According to him I should not hold my breath waiting for the Q. Apparently it is little more than a "concept" phone put out there to keep investors interested in motorola as they attempt to actually find a legitimate successor to the Razor.

He reports that Verizon agreed to help Motorola with this deception for lucrative discounts on future Moto Phones. The Q apparently is beyond Moto's current ability to maunfacture efficiently and at best will be available early next year.

Dont hate the player, hate the game folks.

This is quite a stretch... are you sure your friend is a VP at Verizon? He might be the one pulling a fast one on you.

The REAL truth is, the Q was originally given to Motorola by aliens. It is not of this world. Verizon is waiting on a huge shipment, which is being held up in space for some unknown reason. I learned this from a pretty reliable Verizon rep, who also happens to be an extraterrestrial. He's predicting early May, by the way.

I think it was definatly the aliens.

So, what's been holding up the launch of the Motorola Q? Well, we're not gonna speculate about the inner workings of Moto, Verizon and all the other parties to this long-delayed Smartphone. But there's at least one bottleneck that we can confirm has been broken: the CDMA Q has now cleared the FCC. Does that mean the phone is going to be out this week, this month (this year)? Who knows? However, the fact that we've already seen it added to Verizon's online image library could mean there's finally light at the end of this long tunnel.

Really, I can not find the image on verizons website. This Q is fantastic but wow the delays is killing me. I have a Treo 700 and its just OK coming form my Blackberry with Nextel. I just got spoiled by RIM. I hate the fact that I need 2 hands for the Treo. IM excited that the Q has the BBerry wheel. I called and asked and called and asked and NOBODy at Verizon has a clue of Q. Can you help me find the image on VZW website?

😳 Yes.. of course.. how could we be so blind??? 😳

I saw a space 'documentary' wherein one of the commanders of the Enterprise, Captain J. L. Piccard, encountered the omnipotent 'Q' just after taking command. 'Q' often interupted the very important space work they were doing. 😲

The 'Q' Continuum must have created this device as a way of mind controlling us! 😈 Another encounter documents a game that the crew played which brainwashed them and was a plot to take control of the spacecraft. This MUST be the same mind control technique! It would be just like them to name the device after themselves!

Avoid the 'Q' at all costs!! Keep your strobe lights handy to 'deprogram' the infected!! 😎

I say we vote to see who has ...

I know everybody here is leaning to the Alien story but I think this guy really works for the Bush administration. They're the masters of "misinformation"...or is it just lying, I don't know....

How about the fact that the FCC just approved this on the 22nd? What part of that is VZW's fault. Now that the FCC has approved it, all systems should be good to go with getting them in stock and ready to ship out. I went to training on this device last week, and the Motorola Reps for VZW were forecasting the Q to be available by the end of Q2.

Ok so there seems to be several people that claim they have the inside scoop on this phone and everyone's story is different. I just wonder if Motorola realizes there are other new phones in the market now and others coming very soon...for real though...that can pretty much compete with the Q.

I myself have been waiting quite impatiently for this thing to finally show it's head and I think by the time it does I'll have already purchased another phone.

The handset will be with Verizon wireless. The date is just unknown. All these people who test the device really do not have the answer. They are just speculating. I wouldn't expect this device to be released any time soon. The only information that i could find within VZW intranet: "a motorola handset will be released to VZW business customers between 05/24 to 07/02"

Okay, its been some time since I last posted, and I can tell you for a fact that its not the Aliens but Motorola and Verizon who are fooling us all.

The Q is, as I said before, a concept device designed to fool the market into continuing to support moto's stong stock positioning. The Q "samples" out there all suffer from short battery life, major issues with funtionality - both physical and software.

It is a slick looking phone, but notice that it is also being billed as a SUPER phone with EVERY available option.

Again, my friend at Verizon assures me that this phone will NEVER reach consumer hands.

You're very wrong my friend. This device has already be introduced on VZW intranet. Which means it will be released in 2-3 weeks tops.

Now go pester cingular or t-mobiles forum 😎

Well, I told you all about this months ago, and none of you believed me.

All of the issues that you are having with the Q is proof that the device is nothign but a sham.

Your a idiot. Every phone has problems just like you. So if u get your kicks off messing with people fine but shut up cause you are an idiot. If the phone was crap no one would have it. Every phone has to have that first phase out where they find what is bad about it and change it. Get over it sugardaddy. Im sure one of your little women can help you there. Just rememeber 18 is the age of consent!

I agree. Funny, one should watch what he says. Definitive statements can harm you. If he just used "might never reach the hands of consumers" he wouldn't have looked like an a** 😉
