    Launch is determined by Verizon testing schedule. It is early. Phone is best Q variant so far. I like mine.

    Fingerprint scanner unlock is flawless. Faster than entering a password.

    No that isn't it. That phone has a higher megapixel camera. Not sure if it has the GSM / CDMA worldphone feature of Napoleon.

    The user guide for Napoleon would suggest it won't even be a Q branded phone, but maybe that was just the first draft.

    Trials are over, so it must be getting closer to release.

    Since there has been nothing new, I will assume that this device is not coming to market. Are there any Motorola smartphones coming out for verizon in the next few months? If not I might have to get a Samsung :(

    I've been checking this thread every week or so to see if anybody has any news. Where is this phone???????

    If you are considering the Samsung Saga, don't do it. I used to have a WM5 Q, and just bought the Saga because i couldn't wait any longer for the napoleon. The Saga's going back - it has to be the worst implementation of WM6.1 pro i've ever seen. Maybe i just don't like WMpro, but WM5 smartphone is infinitely easier to use and navigate both as a pda and as a phone. The Saga just takes too many clicks to do anything, and the mouse cursor is cool but in the end to fussy when you just want to look up a contact and make a call. When i pull the thing out of my pocket, or pick it up off the table, the screen is inevitably in the "change clock" screen (why would i want to do that it's set automatically!!!).

    What does "it won't be released to the general public" mean? Does that mean b2b can still get it through business channels? If so when?

    The phone was canceled. The group that developed the phone has been laid off. Windows Mobile and Motorola is a combination you may not hear much about in the future.

    I have purchased this phone from a seller on ebay. I am having trouble activating it on verizon. I can change the MEID online, but when I hit *228, it says it cannot active. I have set it up manually as well, but it still does not work. I called customer care and they said everything looks correct, but it is showing up as a test device and will not activate.

    Can anyone help?

    TIA
