Review: Motorola U9

,----[ Quote ]
| The sleek U9 is wider but thinner than earlier Motorola clamshells. 
| Unobtrusive closed, it opens big to position the mike for best sound-quality. 
| It strongly resembles Motorola's earlier non-Linux-based PEBL phone, but 
| slimmed down, and with an OLED external display.   
| 
| [...]
| 
| The U9 is based on Linux, an open source operating system. That does not mean 
| that anyone can fix the software, though -- only official firmware will load 
| on the device. So, the sole onus for fixing software glitches rests with 
| Motorola.
