Motorola Reveals First iDEN Handset

02 May, 2009, 10:35 am IST | Shayne Rana | Mobile phones

Aside from trying to develop Android, soon to have a possible name change, powered devices, what Motorola’s also got under their sleeves is an Integrated Digital Enhanced Network or iDEN device that features a full QWERTY keyboard. The i465, dubbed the Clutch, may be a low end device but meets military-specs for extreme conditions including shock, vibration, dust, and solar radiation.


It’s Motorola’s first device that combines the power of push-to-talk and the convenience of QWERTY keyboard with shortcut keys and software upgrades such as IM-style texting. This type of texting allows for an all-in-one view of incoming and outgoing messages. Other features include –
  • A 1.79-inch TFT LCD with a 128 x 160 pixel resolution and 64k colors
  • VGA Camera with video capture
  • Audio player
  • 20 MB user available memory
  • Bluetooth 1.2, micro USB
  • 2.5mm audio jack (mono)

The Motorola Clutch i465 is expected to be available beginning in Q2 2009, there’s no pricing mentioned yet nor where it’ll ship to first.
