The Z10 from Motorola is a 4 ounce platinum trimmed that sports a stylish bendy design, but in reality doesn’t actually offer the user a great deal else. One would have thought if

The Motorola Z10 is pretty cool. It breaks in half, after all. And though the design innovations are impressive, the phone itself doesn’t have much to speak of.     Intended to be a mobile studio for those on the go, the phone doesn’t exactly live up to expectations.

HTC Dream, the much talked about handset that runs on Google's Android platform and that is prepared by T-Mobile for a US release, will come in a banana-shaped case – a form factor that some of Motorola's phones (Z8, Z10) are famous for.
