Moto Ming (A 1200) Launched in India

October 17th, 2006 4 comments

Linux powered Moto Ming (Motorola A1200) was launched in India two weeks back. It’s one of the latest Linux based Moto phones. Phone looks awesome and is too delicate to handle. After beeing in my hands for two weeks it has already got a few scratches :( . 2 MP camera, Smooth rubber coated body, translucent cover, bussiness card reader, touch screen and really great sound quality make this phone even more must to have. Ming in chinese means crystal clear and bright, this phone proves the meaning. J2ME applications are easily installable, and Yahoo! has promised to launch “Y! Go” for Motorola phones too. :)
