Motorola officially announced the ZN200 slider in Brazil. It’s not a bad looking phone. The handset features a 2.0-megapixel camera, microSD card slot, media player and built-in FM radio.

It’s also got a camera key on the side so you can take pictures in landscape mode if you need to. Comes with 30MB of built-in memory and a 1GB memory card might be included in the package. The ZN200 should be hitting stores no later then September in Brazil for about $311 and it comes in white with pink or black with chrome.

Motorola hasn’t really had a hit when it comes to cell phones since the Razr was so hot several years back. Since then Motorola has been losing market share and popularity at a rate its shareholders are sure to not like.

Verizon Wireless announced today that is has a new exclusive handset from Motorola called the MOTO W755. The device looks similar to the popular Razr phone and is available in slate black or purple colors. The phone has a built-in music player and supports AAC, AMR NB, MIDI, MP3, and WMA V9 file formats.

This Motorola concept phone has an interesting and cool look from both sides. It’s designed by Lysandre Follet from Paris and has a dual camera, Wifi and Bluetooth connectivity.

It looks very much like the Motorola Q phone without the QWERTY keypad. Some other features include e-mail support and dedicated hard keys for the multimedia player. It certainly looks like it’s easy to use for those who appreciate simplicity.

If you’re getting frustrated with the limited feature set of your current set-top box from your cable company, Motorola is showcasing the next generation of set top boxes for the cable industry this year at the CES 2008, bringing their first MPEG-4 box for interactive in-home television programming. The new DCX series set-top boxes support high-def video content, surround sound and can act as a hub to share media between it and other compatible devices in the home.

One of the biggest complaints we’ve heard about DVRs from cable providers is the inability to easily share recorded content to anywhere else other than the DVR itself. The new DCX series boxes allow users to not only share the content with other devices so you can watch it in another room, but it also lets the owners add their own media to the device and share it as well.

Motorola is bringing to CES its usual portfolio of intriguing devices. One of the most intriguing is its new Motorola Mobile TV DH01, a portable media player style device which acts like a DVR for letting you view and record live television on the go.

The Motorola Mobile TV DH01 is a lightweight, pocket sized PMP, according to Motorola. It works off of a non-proprietary system and supports the DVBH broadcasting standard. Sporting a 4.3-inch display, the DH01 lets you view live television where signal reception is possible. DVR functionality allows you to record television to an inserted SD/MMC memory card. Motorola says you can fit 90 minutes of television video on a 256MB card.

If you are looking for that extra-special Christmas present for yourself and feel that your ear needs to have more attention from passersby, might we suggest treating yourself to one of only 100 special Motopure H12 Bluetooth headsets being manufactured by Motorola and luxury custom mobile phone maker Alexander Amosu? This sheik fashion-meets-technology statement is made from 18 karat gold (in your choice of yellow or white) and incorporates over 180 cut diamonds amassing a total of 3.47 carats. You can even choose to mix up your diamonds in the standard brilliant clear white, pink or even black color choices just to express your individuality.

Naturally something like this doesn’t come cheap. Before you jet over to Selfridges or Harvey Nicholls in London to place your order you should know that the base model, the bottom of the line, the cheapest one they’ve got will cost you $8,175 while the tricked out big blinged one that will transform your earlobe into a member of 50 Cent’s entourage runs $12,775 plus tax. All we have to say is that for that kind of price tag you not only better remember where you set your headset down but we suggest that you alarm it as well.

Motorola has launched the latest in its “MOTO” line of products, this one being the MOTOPURE h12 Bluetooth headset. This little silver square headset features Motorola’s dual-microphone CrystalTalk technology for filtering out background noise, a diamond-cut high-gloss finish and a rated talk time of 5.5 hours and standby of about 8 days.

Aside from its “businessy” good looks and high sound quality, what’s really cool about this headset the charging accessories. The H12 not only comes with a desktop charging base but also has a hard case that you can place the H12 headset in to protect it when you’re not using it. The case itself also doubles as a charger with the headset inside. The MOTOPURE also comes packaged with three different sized ear cushions as part of the “TrueComfort” design, an ear hook to help hold it in place and a shirt clip.

Motorola announced today what it is calling its first portable in-car speaker phone and music system accessory. The new Motorola MOTOROKR T505 is slated to be available sometime early next year.

This connection allows the T505 to stream from the phone telephone calls and stereo music. This audio comes to the T505 and is rebroadcast on your car stereo via FM. A built-in feature helps you determine the best FM station for clear audio.

The recent buzz from the Transformers movie may have died down, but all of the various products, hacks and mods that it inspired will be with us for a long time to come. In fact, future archaeologists will dig some of this stuff up a thousand years from now and swear up and down that we worshiped Optimus Prime. One example of coolness inspired by this craze is this case mod of the Motorola MOTOROKR E6. Now, this is what cellphones should aspire to.

The down side is that it renders the phone completely unusable. Then again, when you have something this cool, you won’t care. Pay attention cellphone manufacturers. This is what we want. Robots in our ears. You can market them as “The Transformer Phone: More Then Meets The Ear…”

Rumors first popped up online a few weeks ago that Motorola would be introducing a music hybrid into its line-up of European models. Today that gossip became fact when details and photos slipped out concerning the Motorola ROKR E8 Music Phone.

The E8 comes with a 2.0-megapixel camera, 262K color QVGA display, 2GB of internal memory, a FM radio, 3.5 mm headphone jack and a microSD slot for memory card expansion.

Short-range radios have done a lot to keep people in communication, whether the environment is the great outdoors and you want to stay in contact with your pals back in base camp while you take a trek through the woods or if you’re a parent that wants to tell your kids playing down the street that dinner is ready.

Motorola, one of the leaders in these kinds of devices, expanded their line-up of two-way radios today with the announcement of the T3 and T5 TLKR models aimed at people who enjoy active lifestyles with friends, family or anyone that they want to stay in constant communication with.
