Scott Moritz over at TheStreet says the Motorola Q will not debut at CTIA like many insiders were expecting. Verizon Wireless will have an exclusive on the thin-line PDA at launch, but consumers will have to wait at least a little longer:
The stage was set for an announcement that Verizon Wireless -- a joint venture of Verizon -- has stocked its shelves with Q phones. But now, Verizon Wireless says the Q isn't ready. And although phone delays are far from rare, the Q's absence stands to add to an already long list of product problems for Motorola this year.
Motorola announced the Q (also called the RAZRBerry in rumors) last summer and was originally slated for a Q4 launch. Motorola's website recently updated to note a Q launch in April and then quickly removed the mention and changed it to "coming soon".
The Q seems to have a problem with its battery,it dies by mid day on a full charge probably due to the sync always running. If you rock its boat to much it will shut down on you. Spend for the Higher capacity battery, which makes it a chubby Q with the added weight and new door. For your average user it gets the job done. Lets face it we pay for Blackberry for the reputation and track record. The Q needs to go to the proving grounds and get the foam insulation fixed before it takes off!
