it is not going to come out. they are looking to merge the systems by jan 06, the new mototorola handsets that are probably already in the design phase will be both tdma and cdma capable. the tecnology is there samsung, motorola, nokia have all designed phones that can be used on different types of networks. I highly doubt that nextel will drop millions of dollars to motorola in production costs for a phone that will be garbage in 6 months. They are focusing on getting inter-network handsets out intime for the merger. further more nextel execs arent stupid, they realize that the i930 has already missed the mark lacking what many other windows based phone already have. I think they should scrap the i930 and focus on developing a windows device you can use featuring bluetooth, wi-fi, ev-do, etc...but who knows they are releasing the i605, have you seen this ebomination, it looks like an uglier green version of the i85 with a color screen, god help us if this is what is in store for the future of nextel.

-from phone scoop...

"But with all of these delays, some features of the phone - like the mere VGA camera and lack of Bluetooth - are making the phone look outdated by now. Which is why a Motorola representative admitted it's likely that the i930 will simply be scrapped in favor of a new model that has a megapixel camera and Bluetooth. Unfortunately, that would mean an even longer wait for an iDEN smartphone..."

Agree,
I played with the I930 in Vegas in jan. it was a nice phone but the size was to big and bulkey and compaired to other carriers window based phones out on the market and their awesome size I agree they will scrap that baby and go for a new improved model.

Isn't the i930 about the same in size as the i860? I don't mind the size of the i860 especially with my big *** finger always pushing the wrong buttons. I hope they release it, the latest I heard is Q4 of 2005. I found some info on the FCC website for them trying to get it going I found it about a month ago it should still be there.

I think The i605 will be a great phone when it comes out. Nextel and Motorola have been pushing the i930 back for so long. They have been talking about the i930 for a few years now.

I noticed on the motorola iden wesite they have a picture of a guy using the i930 its on the main page I think just as like an advertisement but one would think they would not even post a pic of it there if it wasn't coming soon. I hope it comes out SOON!! That or the i760 is due very soon also.

I saw the new phones that are coming out on Monday, May 2nd. The i275 is just like the i265, but it has a camera on it. The phone's kinda cool and it'll be pretty cheap. The i605 is just like all of the photos. FUGLY, but it has a camera and bluetooth technology. Also, the i355, but I didn't bother to check that one out.... it is what it is. I'm going to assume that ANTC's post regarding the release dates of the phones is on point so I'll be waiting for July to come for the i850.... or maybe until November for the i870...... that's if I can deal with this p.o.s. i730 that I have right now.

oops, well no camera on the i605, but the i930 might not be coming out at all..... WTF. I say we all get over it and deal with the fact that we may never see that phone.

Anyone know if any of the new phones have j2me on them?

[lolamarya]

I saw the i836 today. It's an updated i830 with a sleeker look (clamshell type) and multimedia messaging. http://preidenphones.motorola.com/id...s&content=i836
