The only pricing information we have at present is that it will be available on Telstra’s $49 cap.

Motorola Milestone 2 coming to Optus and Vodafone in December
I’ll be the first to admit the Motorola Milestone was a great phone, sure its bootloader was locked up beyond all belief, but its hardware was fantastic. What was the real down-side to the Milestone was how long it took any carrier to bring it to Australia, which lead to its poor sale. Now Motorola [...]

So if you’re after a mid-range Android device head into your local Dick Smith store as they are starting [...]

What’s happening in October..
It’s finally October, which means there is a fair bit of stuff expected to happen, unless of course you’re waiting for your Android 2.1 or 2.2 update, because that’ll no doubt be pushed back, again! In all seriousness though, there are a couple of fairly big launches coming up, and with a bit of luck [...]
Motorola FLIPOUT coming to Aus in early October – yay.
I thought the barrage of shoddy Motorola devices came to an end when Optus cleared them from their online store, but evidently that is not the case. Motorola have today announced that they are bringing the Motorola FLIPOUT to our shores, and I know just how excited everyone is about that. But hang on, let’s [...]
All Motorola devices pulled from the Optus website
What do you do when you launch 3 low-end devices and stop supporting them, as well as launching another device 6 months late? Well if you’re Optus, you pull them from your website and pretend none of that ever occurred. However, if you still want a Quench, DEXT, Backflip or Milestone, you could always head [...]
