Engadget Mobile has revealed the Motorola i872, revised i335, and a RAZR2 variant codenamed CABO that is sure to surprise. Hit the Read More link for full details.
The i872 looks to be an evolution of the discontinued i855 multimedia clamshell which adds Bluetooth with stereo audio support and an LED flash next to the 1.3 megapixel camera, and a full-size SD slot. No other details are known at this time, but the phone is expected sometime in the second quarter of the year.
The Motorola i335 is a revised version of the original candybar phone released on Boost Mobile last year, this time adding a VGA camera and and more rounded sleeker body on top of Bluetooth support and a USB port. No other details are available at this time.
The Motorola CABO looks to be the most interesting of the group as it features a massive display on the front of the clamshell ringed by touch-sensitive controls with an overall design similar to the RAZR2.
The phone features Bluetooth with stereo audio support, microSD slot with support for yet unreleased 6GB cards, and the closing feature that will sell the phone for most will be the purported 3 megapixel camera. The phone is expected in the fourth quarter with no additional details available at this time.

Sprint wil be the number one company in time. Wi- max is the best thing every created on a wirless phone and sprint will be out every company with this new project.
Also these new phones will be great. Sprint is the future, mark my words.
Sprint will go belly up if they dont do something about there poor customer service.
Let’s give credit where credit is due: Motorola finally convinced those morons at Sprint to finally add on some new phones onto the Nextel iDEN-only side. And it’s about time. Personally, the only phone that’s even worth considering is the Cabo. Personally, I’d love to see it mated with a WiMAX chipset. That would be truly awesome, in my book, but hey….based on what I know about it so far, it’s good enough as is…just have to see whether Motorola (or Sprint for that matter) prices the Cabo out of my (and most everyone else’s) price range. I hope the phone comes in at under $200 w/ WiMAX. Otherwise, this phone shouldn’t cost more than $149 if it doesn’t come with WiMAX (sorry, wifi should not command any premium whatsoever in my opinion).
if they come out with this it will be $300 easily. nextel phones are expensive. a phone comparable to the original razr(without the looks)is $200, which just dropped to $100 a year after release. a nextel blackberry which normal carriers outed a YEAR AGO is still $200
