It’s said that similar to the BlackBerry Curve 8900 you need to see Motorola’s SURF in action up close and personal in order to really “appreciate” and take advantage of its attributes. Motorola has created the SURF’s exterior with a dab finger-friendly touch, however this besides this main feature this device isn’t much to get excited about. This device brings joy to your fingers and happiness to the surface of its screen as your fingertips glide across it utilizing Windows latest version for mobile phones.
The screen has a one-of-a-kind feel to it and even though the SURF includes a stylus you’d probably lose it on purpose just so you could keep using your fingertips! The SURF has been said to be an alternative to the Touch Diamond by HTC, however the Touch is over 8 months old therefore to a mobile tech savvy person that likes to be on top of the latest gadgets it’s already “outdated”. We believe Motorola should have launched the SURF as an open source Android phone completely replacing the whole Windows Mobile idea.
