Cingular, T-Mobile Halt Motorola Razr Sales Due To Bug

By

Cingular Wireless and T-Mobile USA have temporarily stopped selling the Razr, Motorola Inc.’s flagship cell phone, due to a technical glitch that causes the phone to drop calls or shut down, the companies said on Friday. This sounds like issues I had with my Cingular Motorola V600 a couple years ago and Cingular just stopped offering the phone, but never recalled any of them. I feel all your pain on this one!

Motorola said only a limited number of phones were affected and the problem would have no impact on its financial results. The Razr, lauded for its thin design, was first sold in late 2004 and is still a key product for Motorola. Motorola spokesman Alan Buddendeck said the faulty phones were sold to operators between January 16 and February 28, with the first of the U.S. shipments on February 1. He did not say where else the phones were sold.
