The sensuous and smart design of the new MOTO™ U9 combines Motorola's iconic style with the best mobile music experience.
Fergie is a GRAMMY Award-winning, multi-platinum superstar artist as well as a woman on the cutting edge of modern style. She is the perfect icon to help us communicate to consumers that style and music are integral to people as a way to express themselves -- and that MOTO U9 embodies those qualities

Libertyville, IL (PRWEB) October 15, 2007 -- Motorola, Inc. is showing off the stylish side of music with the introduction of MOTO U9.

"MOTO U9 combines the surprising with the familiar, the latest in premium design and inventive controls with the next popular spin on Motorola's classic clamshell design to deliver the most stylish and dynamic mobile music experience," said Rob Shaddock, senior vice president of Feature and Mass Market Phones, Mobile Devices, Motorola. "MOTO U9 embodies the stylish side of Motorola's music-enabled devices, further building on our strong portfolio of products for a diverse global audience."

Seamless, small and light weight, the curvaceous U9 has been designed to fit perfectly in the pocket or hand. Its metallic gloss finish comes to life with animated screen savers that appear to "float" across the borderless external display. The external display is not just for show, however, as touch sensitive, digital keys let users control their music player from the outside.

Through an exclusive arrangement with recording artist Fergie, in select markets Motorola will provide exclusive content on the phone, promotional activities, and TV and print campaigns.

"Fergie is a GRAMMY Award-winning, multi-platinum superstar artist as well as a woman on the cutting edge of modern style. She is the perfect icon to help us communicate to consumers that style and music are integral to people as a way to express themselves -- and that MOTO U9 embodies those qualities," said Joni Christensen, director of Global Music Marketing, Mobile Devices, Motorola.
