Leave it to Motorola to come up with a big hit handset just in time for the holidays. The MOTORAZR (M702iS) with iMode was introduced on December 14, 2006 and has been a hotseller in Japan.

This handset works with DoCoMo’s powerful FOMA(R) 3G network to deliver mobile content to subscribers cell phones and to stay connected with friends and loved ones.

“We knew people were waiting for MOTORAZR, and we knew the Christmas season would be big. This proves it will be as big a hit in Japan as it is everywhere else,” said Motorola’s Michael Tatelman, corporate vice-president and general manager, Mobile Devices Business, North Asia. “This is the best possible endorsement of the strategy DoCoMo and Motorola have pursued in creating a device that is powerful yet elegant and sophisticated, and is a clear demonstration of how much people in Japan want a device like this.”

The MOTORAZR is one the slimmest phones available on the market today. The M70x series to combine Bluetooth capability, DoCoMo’s “World Wing(R)” 3G global roaming, and the full suite of iMode content and services. This marks the first time the MOTORAZR has been offered in Japan.
