Motorola, Sprint and Boost Mobile are taking the wraps off the thinnest flip phone in the Nextel Direct Connect lineup. The Motorola i9 phone debuts at Boost Mobile in late February, followed by Sprint. A stylish multimedia powerhouse, Motorola Stature i9 features external keys for quick access to iDEN-based Nextel Direct Connect, Sprint's push-to-talk service.
Motorola's ModeShift technology allows the exterior keys to change and illuminate based on the user's current application, such as camera operation or the media player. Other Stature i9 mobile phone features include two large screens, GPS, Bluetooth and up to 8GB of storage.
