Here's a Hint For You – Motorola Calls it a Social Messaging Slider

Motorola designed the Hint QA30 for quick access to networking features such as one-touch SMS access, IM, email and web browsing.

"Staying in touch with friends and family, keeping networks updated and ensuring constant access to social circles are top priorities for many consumers," said Mark Shockley, corporate vice president and general manager, Motorola Mobile Devices. "Motorola Hint is the stylish solution for those multitaskers who are used to having several conversations at once and demand quick, reliable access and communication."

Due to a 2.5-inch widescreen display the Motorola Hint QA30 is almost square when closed. Opening the slider reveals a full QWERTY keypad.

The outside one-touch music keys control the integrated MP3 player while the slider is closed. Listen via stereo Bluetooth or unlike the Android G1, a for real 3.5mm headset jack. In addition to a full HTML browser, there are Brew applications for POP3/IMAP4 email access and instant messaging. Add on a 2.0 megapixel photo and video camera, MPEG4 video playback and you've got a complete feature set.

Alltel will have the CDMA QA30 Hint beginning Friday, November 28, 2008 for $99.99, after a $50.00 mail-in rebate. The Motorola website has lots more pictures and details of the Hint QA30.
