    7448?

    What's that? Vaporware? Has Moto ever said it was fabricating a 7448? Link?

    G5 Upgrades!

    Awesome! Nice to hear that it's even a possibility. Hopefully that's not just up to the 2GHz models though. I'd love to be able to upgrade my dual 2GHz to a full, balls-out liquid nitrogen cooled dual 3GHz with dual cores! Hahaha!
