Best Android qwerty phone in terms of specs, IMO.
Also, I like the fact that it looks really nice, in comparison to the other Android pros out there.
And the portrait screen is a big factor. :)
Sana nga reasonably priced, and sana ma officially release dito sa PHL.

This would be an awesome social networking/tweeting/blogging (and Quora-ing for me) phone if it has a BlackBerry Bold-class keyboard.

And Motorola’s life just got extended by Google!

This is actually priced as a mid-ranged mobilephone in Europe. Around 10k to 11k when converted to Philippine peso. But, of course, when it comes to Philippines, the distributor usually relatively doubles the price.
