by the way D807 is not really the first slide phone: samsung D500 is a GSM slide phone.which come out much earlier than the D809 .and I don't even know D500 is the first one or not. for USA probably Tmobile T809 is the first one. and D807 come up after T809 as cingular model

the SGH-d415 was the first slider. it came way before any of those models you idiots have claimed. how old are you guys? like 12?

I think its saying that is the first GSM slider in the U.S. that features premium communications and multimedia features.

mdvd is correct, it is Motorola's first GSM slider in the U.S. My apologies for the confusion.

Cool- so T-Mobile *finally* has this- which is great since my contract is up for renewal in a week.
BUT-- Supposedly motorola is going to also have the KRZR in a few weeks too (about time- T-Mobile always seems to be the LAST to have newer phones.  )
SO. what do you all think about the RIZR vs KRZR? As far as I know, they're both extremely similar. Any big selling points in the view of you all of one over the other one? My gut feeling is that the open design is the slider phone with the exposed screen is asking for trouble (*crack*).

I agree with the concerns about the outer screen - therefore I prefer the KRZR.
Also FYI the KRZR feels much more solidly built than the RAZR

Personally I'm definitely going for the RIZR - better camera than the KRZR, better display and more solid feel to it. Just waiting for the maroon version from T-mobile which is supposed to be available soon:))
And the screen concerns? What about all the other bar shaped non-flip phones? Unless you're extremely rough with your fone it should be fine.

I happen to like the Rizr much better than the K1, i miss that phone, but I wouldn't consider buying a k1 personally

So, when is this phone going to be available in different colors? The blue one is out right now, and If it takes months for the multiple colors to come out, then I dont think I'll wait. (Id prefer the all black.)

Anyone know when this will be available on Amazon for T-mobile? I love the RIZR, but I don't want to pay $99 for through T-mobile. Once it goes up on Amazon I can talk them into giving me a $20 or $30 discount I think. I'd have my mom start a family plan through Amazon to get cheaper phones, but I don't want to go through the hassle of changing phone numbers. How does amazon get those cheap prices? (Before rebates their phones are practically free.)

look at the fine print when you sign up cuz most of the deals you have to add a data plan and or the higher min plan .

i've gone through amazon twice before and have never had to sign up for anything extra. Also, I'm aware that it has to be a new customer, thats why I mentioned needing my mom to start the family plan if I did choose that route.

Yeah, I get all of my phones through amazon
No extra things other than the $250 they'll charge you if you muck up your service.

So does the unlocked RIZR work on Cingular?
Is there a need to contact Cingular support to use it, or just dropping the sim card will work?

ya it workz like a charm! anyway i really dont care about the MMS setting only itnernet cuz i dont use MMS but yup just put it in and it works u know whats wierd? I had a Samsung D807 be4 the RIZR and when I popped the sim into the RIZR IT AUTOMAITCLY CHANGED FROM CINGULAR TO AT&T! so weird!

my unlocked RIZR from ebay worked great when i popped the SIM in. all i had to do was look up the MMS and internet settings then apply them. was pretty simple. its a good, solid phone that looks awesome. 2 of my friends already ordered them.
i was completely sold that i wanted the iPhone but the price is nuts and usually the first generation anything from Apple is always followed by a much better second generation product.
so i'll hang on to this one for aobut a year until i see how well the iPhone goes over (and let the price come down). its nice to be a free agent and out of my contract w/Cingular. That's the beauty of unlocked phones.

Without contracts, you more than likely get crappy service, Contracts=guarnteed money for the carrier=more income=more towers= better service, but it is nice to know you can threaten to switch.
