Man,those were for serious the good old days so it’s nice Motorola wanted to play up the nostalgia factor and hit us with a 2004 edition of their classic StarTAC handset. It will apparently feature a single 128x160 pixel 262k color display, up to 190 minutes talk and 185 hours standby time, and maintains that classic chic physique at only 3.4 x 1.8 x 0.78-inches in size (in the smaller-batteried version, presumably).No word yet on availability.But as always will keep you posted!

Masseur: Will you PLEASE stop posting my opinions before I do??
Depending on price this could very well be my second phone...

SE on the other hand should react to and counter this, and do it SOON!

from my searches it seems this has been out since early in the year but is limited to the South Korean market and it seems to be CDMA only





there seems to be 2 versions, the Startac 2004


and the Startac 2004 SE (special edition)

I once bought a housing for my startac which was United Colours of Benetton and was yellow, red and blue (or green - can't remember now)

once I fitted it onto the phone it lasted one day before I realised how horrible it looked and went back to classic black
