Verdict of Motorola PEBL

This phone is creating a stir. Critics and users have been bowled over by its innovative design and ease of use. If you have a Motorola PEBL be sure to let other consumers know what it's like and write a review at this site. Meanwhile read on for our Editor's Summary of the phone which is creating the latest buzz in the mobile phone world. Written January 2006.

The next iPod?

Well, maybe not, but while other brands are concentrating on super thin mobile phones Motorola decided to offer something completely different with the Motorola PEBL and it looks like they have achieved something fairly special.

With slick advertising presenting this phone as a smooth pleasant thing to hold, a treasure akin to the joy of finding a shiny pebble on the beach, it appears like Motorola may have, in fact, struck gold.[B] It is clearly an attempt by the company to create a must have fashion accessory akin to Apple's iPod.

Early feedback on this hi tech oval shaped mobile phone has been extremely positive.

The PEBL has a black rubber casing and a self-opening mechanism which opens the cover with a flick of a switch. Inside you find a smart sharp screen and up-to-date technology.
