There isn’t much this skinny Razor from Motorola can’t do. With enhanced messaging capabilities and airplane flight mode to listen to music while high in the sky it makes things that much better with the MicroSD slot for expanded memory. That trip from LA to NY never seemed shorter.
Most other specs are in-line with the traditional Razor we’ve all come to love. Cingular is lucky enough to not only lock in the iPhone but the MOTOKRZR model too.

In the event you have a mobile phone or PDA which uses a miniSD card, you might want to install a .exe file from flash. To do this, it’s fairly simple.

During installation you should have the option on where to install the program, from there select the flash memory.
Samsung is in collaboratin with Beyonce on their SGH-F300 Ultra Music phone where she will heavliy promot the product in spot TV commercials, ads and concert tours. Not a bad move for Samsung as teaming with Beyonce gains some serious followers. The deal also gives F300 owners an exclusive and embedded sound track, “Irreplaceable” pre-loaded on the cell.
The F300 is a unique device with two faces. A large display for viewing pics, videos and movies and on the back side, a smaller display for phone entry and dialing. With the ultra slim design and expandible microSD card, it’s a very attractive deal. Not available everywhere, but with Beyonce on-board it will be soon.
