Libertyville, Ill. July 29, 2008 -- Motorola, Inc.
today announced that the stylish MOTO U9 is now
available unlocked for
GSM networks in the U.S. exclusively through MOTOSTORE (http://www.store.motorola.com/U9). In addition to its curvaceous, graceful design, the U9 features an abundance of mobile entertainment features.

U9 is a stylish phone, designed for trendsetters seeking to make a
fashion statement,” said Pete Peterson, general manager, global
ecommerce, Motorola Mobile Devices. “In addition, U9 delivers a dynamic
music experience, allowing consumers to carry the music that moves them
anywhere they go.”
Seamless, small and light weight, the chic 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. This display is not

control their music player from the outside.
