Even though we have been mostly talking about Motorola's Android smartphones these days, let us not forget that it also has a line-up of feature phones - a decent one at that.That line-up has been expanded with the addition of two more handsets to its portfolio known as the Rambler and the Bali.
The Rambler is a very rare clamshell device - with a QWERTY keyboard. The device boasts of a very basic 1.3 megapixel camera, support for video recording, web browser, e-mail support, A2DP Bluetooth and GPS support. The phone seems to be a messaging oriented device. It will be available in U.S. starting August 11 and will be priced at $99.99 (Rs. 4,700 approx.) excluding taxes.
As for the Bali, it is quite similar to the Rambler - except that it comes sans the QWERTY keyboard and packs in a T9 version instead. Features include a 1.3 megapixel camera on board, GPS and stereo Bluetooth. You might also notice the dedicated, external controls for the music player. Memory expansion is taken care of by a microSD card slot.
The pricing of Bali is a tad surprising. It will set the user back by $149.99 (Rs. 6,900 approx.) and would be available starting August 11 in U.S.
Note that these are CDMA phones - but we don't mind Motorola bringing these to countries like India - albeit in a GSM avatar.
