David Beckham Takes Off His Shirt For The RAZR2

GeekSugar — Fri, 14 Sep 2007 12:50:06 -0700

We've all seen David Beckham's new sharp Motorola RAZR2 ads, which feature Becks showing off his RAZR2 in a chic suit, but who really wants Becks or his phone when his shirt is on? Motorola's Korean site has released some saucy pics of our favorite celebrity gadget endorser showing off his new phone in all his shirtless, tattooed glory. They've also created a fun "Becoming Becks" flash feature that I can't understand, but I can totally appreciate. Did I mention the RAZR2 is now available in the US? I may have been overwhelmed by his beauty.

Beckham's Motorola RAZR2 Available In US

GeekSugar — Fri, 07 Sep 2007 10:00:30 -0700

You may not be able to get your hands on Becks, but you can get your hands on the Becks-repped MOTORAZR2.

Motorola is calling this version "sleeker outside and more powerful inside." It comes in dark pearl grey, espresso and mahogany and features 512MB of memory, Bluetooth, a 2.2-inch display, video streaming, Blogging2, music player (it can hold about 250 songs with the 512 MB of memory) and a web browser.

They managed to shave off two millimeters from its predecessor and have apparently added a more intelligent interface. The phone is now available at several national U.S. wireless carriers and through Motorola's online store.

Becks Lends His Physique To Sharp RAZR2 Ads

GeekSugar — Mon, 30 Jul 2007 22:10:54 -0700

Welcome to America Mr. David Beckham! Sure, we got a little snotty when you first came to town and we saw you carrying your BlackBerry in a dorky belt clip, but you have officially redeemed yourself. Motorola is in the middle of a publicity blitz for the RAZR2, which is set to follow in the ever popular footsteps of the RAZR, and Becks has resumed his role as the celebrity spokesperson. Not only does he look like a dignified movie star in the ads showing off the new phone, but his billboards have been put up in Hollywood above his new stomping ground, Galaxy Field. Be still, my heart.

The Motorazr2 is available in select markets right now and will be rolling out in the rest soon. It comes in dark pearl grey, espresso and mahogany and features 512MB of memory, Bluetooth, a 2.2-inch display, video streaming, Blogging2, music player (it can hold about 250 songs with the 512 MB of memory) and a web browser. They managed to shave off two millimeters from its predecessor and have apparently added a more intelligent interface.

Michelle Trachtenberg Needs Two Phones For Her Busy Life

GeekSugar — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 07:38:55 -0700

Obviously, Michelle Trachtenberg didn't get the memo about how I'd wire Georgina Sparks for her upcoming stint in college, otherwise she'd toss that RAZR2 V9x and BlackBerry Curve and replace it with an iPhone 3GS! Although I am digging her color choice for the outfitted BlackBerry (which is the phone of choice on another show I'm quickly becoming addicted to), I'm just left wondering who carries a RAZR anymore when you're as busy as Michelle!?

At least the iPhone would make it easy to check calendar appointments, make calls, and check emails, plus with endless apps, she can keep her professional (and personal) life chugging along without needing to carry a duo of phones. Pair the iPhone with the Jawbone Bluetooth Headset I recommended, and she's good to go hands-free.

Gossip Girl's Mystery Phones

GeekSugar — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 06:00:56 -0700

Hello, Gossip Girl props! It seems that the scheming characters of the CW's Gossip Girl are a little careless with their cell phones - or does disposable income just allow them to have a cell phone for one episode and then upgrade? It began with Serena Van Der Woodsen, who was spotted in an early episode of the show with an unmistakable iPhone, pictured. However, for the rest of the season (a deal struck with Verizon?), S had a slider phone, and Apple's cell was never seen again.

Now it looks like the same forces are at work - the newly-released season one DVD has an image that, besides having unrecognizable actors, contains Chuck holding a cell phone. The odd thing is, if you're a GG fan and geeksugar tech quiz aficionado, then you know that Chuck used a Moto Q for the entire first season. But on the DVD cover, he has a RAZR2!

What's happening with these cell phones? Do they think we won't notice if they inexplicably change them up? We already discussed the fact that some characters' phones seem miscast, so what do we think of this cell phone mystery? And has anyone rewatched the pilot to see if Chuck has a RAZR2? I won't rest until I know!
