No it’s surely not the Alexander we’re all waiting to hear more about, kind of, but it looks like Motorola has a QWERTY slider in store for us by way of Alltel. The bad news is that it won’t be home to Android, Windows Mobile or any other smart OS. The good news is that, umm, it could have really good battery life thanks to a dumb OS and a 65K color screen, maybe? Specs, Jeeves:
-
1x-EVDO connectivity
-
2.5 inch TFT display with 320 x 240 pixels and 65K colors
-
Threaded messaging
-
Full HTML browser
-
Facebook access
-
Email, IM
-
3.5mm headset jack (nice!)
-
Stereo Bluetooth 2.0
-
USB 2.0
-
2MP camera
-
MicroSD / MicroSDHC card support, up to 32GB
The QA30 surely won’t be winning any races, or design awards, or performance contests, or beauty pageants – but it may well be a welcome addition to the Alltel lineup. Beyond that, it may be a rare case of Alltel being the first to get its mitts on a new handset. Or, it may be that we just haven’t seen leaks out of the other carriers signed on for the QA30.
