Its definitely Riser, cause the phone rises
I agree with the spring loaded opening would be awesome to have, similar to the Moto V80, I loved that phone.

I'm sorry, but every Motorola phone I've owned has sucked. Especially my unlocked SLVR. I only used it for about a month and I couldn't stand it anymore. I got a KJam iMATE instead. Never been happier. As long as you like it though. Congrats.

new rizr was renamed to rokr z6, looks way better than the current rizr on t-mobile even though it looks the same, subtle differences i guess:

LOL someone wanted to ressurect a old RIZR thread. :P. RIZR looks nice, good camera, what not. But it has older version programing. If you jump into the settings, menu, mp3 player what not; its using the same thing as the 1st mp3 player phone that ever came. I never owned it, personally hate sliders cuz they look vicious but its a whore to find a clip/case for it that goes good. So.. I stay with my non-flips

i resurrected it because its a cool phone worth taking a look at, this was acutally the phone that got me interested from switching back to regular phones from smartphones. i do hope that motorola uses the same interface, its easy to navigate.

OT: you use a belt clip for your phone?

Your argument would be much stronger if you spoke in English rather than wigger-bonics

I just ordered the new Moto Rizr Z6c

My old Motorola v815 croaked today when I crashed mountain biking. The phone didn't hit the ground but the jolt must have finally finished it off.

With the new in 2 and online discount plus a coupon I had it dropped it down to $29

\I was trying to decide between this on and the Z6tv, but figured that I wouldn't use the TV feature this one looked like the better choice as I might start traveling overseas more and this phone can do both CDMA and GSM.
