Motorola L2 Phone for Business users at 3GSM


Oodles of Motorola phones were found at the 3GSM today. The new Motorola L2 is a very interesting phone targeted at business users that claims to expand Bluetooth functionality.

The Motorola L2 is ultrathin, a design mostly based on the SLVR L7 slimphone. A candybar phone, it apparently comes with a scratch-resistant display and Moto claims that it can provide as much as 350 minutes of talktime, which is pretty good.

Most of the low-cost phones out in the market miss out on Bluetooth, and it's a welcome change to see Moto including it in the L2. That's right people: Bluetooth is here to stay, in case you haven't noticed. The phone gives you about 10MB of memory - good to store contacts and SMS messages as well. Coupled with the new Bluetooth headset offerings from Motorola, you should find a good match.

Did I mention you don't need a separate charger for this? You can use the optional USB charger to give it more life. The cable also allows you to sync contacts between your phone and desktop. With Java MIDP 2.0 support, you have room for a few games as well, although more memory would've been appreciated.

Watch out for the Motorola L2 in Q1 2006. More info is available from Motorola's website. Check out the extended entry for features.
