Back in 2002 (or as some may argue, late 2001), Motorola wowed us with the V70. Stylishly slick, it's swivel form factor came as a breath of fresh air to a market that was flooded with chunky candy bars and noisy clam shells that clicked louder than they rang. The top layer of the metalic phone swiveled around the display screen to unveil a *gasp* blue backlit keypad, and functioned as the earpiece.
Today, some six years later, Motorola is again wowing us with another phone. Based on the same swivel concept as the V70, the AURA is more than a mere upgrade of it's "predecessor". For starters, there's probably more technology involved in the 16,000,000 (16 million) color 300 dpi display than there was in the entire V70. Naturally, such a high-tech creation deserves nothing but the best protection, and that's exactly what the Grade 1 62-carat sapphire crystal lens is.
A smooth swivel motion is ensured by the use of a Swiss-made main bearing, which works hand-in-hand with a custom-engineered rotating mechanism that consists of nothing less than 130 more ball bearings. To round things off, the housing is coated with PVD, the same stuff they use to coat luxury watches.
The Motorola AURA will be available in the USA for a cool US$2,000, so you had better start saving up now!
