Sprint Announces Motorola Debut i856

Motorola DebutTM i856 brings style to substance by combining best-in-class Nextel Direct Connect® with a new, durable sliding form factor that keeps the keypad secure when not in use, and offers easy access when needed for instant communication between two people or a group of people, next door or in the next state.  It is the first vertical slider device available for use on the Nextel National Network, and this new form factor offers easy one-handed operation, making it easier to get email and text messages.  It also offers a built-in MP3 player with external music controls, and comes with other important features like a 1.3 MP camera with video capture and up to 4x digital zoom, Stereo Bluetooth® and GPS.  Motorola Debut i856 also offers GPS Tagging, which lets you tag a picture with the GPS information from the picture’s location using the GPS receiver built into the handset.
