I've been looking at the new Motorola Cliq phone to possibly replace my broken iPhone. I really like the "motoblur" feature, which basically puts ALL of your normal streams of info - texts, chat, facebook, twitter, emails, etc. etc. into one "stream". Check out the preview:

It's a pretty cool idea, IMO. Someone should write an app for the iphone that does that.
Or does it already exist? :confused:

No idea about an iphone app to do this.
How did you break your iPhone? If it's a case/glass isssue, that's easily fixed.
Is it broken totally?

Cool idea - crap execution. I purchased a CLIQ last week, and it sucks. Stuff like Bluetooth, push email and others just don't work.
MotoBlur looks nice, but all those widgets slow Android down to a crawl.

Yea the glass is basically shattered, but I think that the display underneath is damaged as well. I can replace it for $200 but I'm also fighting AT&T on some charges so I might just tell them to go to hell and go with another carrier.

That's too bad. I know that Motorola is counting on this phone to get back into the market (they're not really "in" the smart phone market at all).
It seems more and more like RIP for Motorola.

What?! How can that be?
They have TWO CEOs, so they must surely be TWICE as successful as any other tech company!
