1. LapTop - 19 November’07 - reviews the Motorola Q 9 and likes the first class call quality. Here’s an excerpt from their review -
   “The Motorola Q 9h global is one of the best smart phones money can buy, especially at its limited-time price of $199 with a two-year contract. It offers very solid call quality, and unlike with the BlackBerry Curve, you get 3G data speeds and the ability to edit attachments out of the box. Although we still prefer the Curve for its smaller size and longer battery life, power users will love what this versatile device has to offer.”

2. Trusted Reviews - 6/4/2007 - has reviewed the Motorola Q 9 and writes, “The Q9 is a bit on the large side for my taste, and while its keyboard is very good the screen is a bit small. Aside from the fact that it is hampered by the lack of Wi-Fi it does its job well.”

3. Pocket-lint - 5/17/2007 - has reviewed the Motorola Q 9 and writes, “Having lived with the phone for three weeks before it was announced on the 16 May in the UK we’ve warmed to the handset from our initial first impressions however don’t feel that its as easy to use as we would have liked it to be.

   It is stylish it is looks and the Windows Mobile 6 interface will appeal, but for us, we still prefer the BlackBerry. Now where’s that Curve?”

4. CNET - 5/16/2007 - has reviewed the Motorola Q 9 and they write, “There are loads of rivals out there — the BlackBerry 8800 has GPS, and the Samsung i600 and Palm Treo 750v also have Qwerty keypads, but the Q 9 beats them all on the strength of its keypad alone. It’s one of the best we have ever used.

   Add to that HSPDA connectivity and a decent-sized screen and you have a worthy rival to RIM and Palm’s offerings. Our only niggles are the lack of a scroll wheel and Wi-Fi, but otherwise this is one of the best smart phones around.”

2007 has seen an endless line of new cell phones and features.

Popular Science looks ahead to next year at hardware and software to see what’s going to capture our attention.

Google is staying pretty quiet when asked if they will be releasing a Gphone. However, they turn into chatter boxes when the subject of Android or the Open Handset Alliance comes up. It’s obvious that the powers at Google will definitely have a hand in the unfolding landscape of cell phones.

Behind Android is true browser capability on par with today’s desktops which opens cell phones up to a broader array of capabilities which will directly compete with the likes of the iPhone.

PCWorld has an in depth article that reveals what Android is and how it will impact our cell phone use. You can find the full article here.
