Smells like Microsoft!

I'm sure there are others out there that share the same opinion:

It's completely absurd that Motorola and Verizon are advertising as a "feature" what should have been standard from the beginning.

Releasing the same phone with a larger battery is just silly. We all know it should have come with a better battery from the start. I like the razr. I have a rezound; the battery sucks on that too.

But come on Motorola! This was a planned move. Sell a phone with a non-replaceable battery, then sell one with a bigger non-replaceable battery. It's smart business. HTC gets $50 for extending the rezound battery. Motorola gets to sell a $300 (maybe 600 off contract) new phone. No wonder google wants to buy them!!

This all smells of Microsoft, release a product with flaws and then sell the "upgrade" that actually works.

I wish I had enough money to hire you guys to design a phone that just works. But then we'd go broke cause we wouldn't have anything to sell as an upgrade.
