In our sneak peak post, we told you that the black and white KRZRs were coming. They're now officially available to TELUS customers.

Here's a cool site that's been getting some attention - it's called blinkx.
According to the site, it's the "world's largest and most advanced video search engine." It searches the Web for audio video content and uses visual analysis and speech recognition to catalogue the videos it finds. Pretty sweet, don't you think?
If you type 'KRZR' into the search field, you can watch up to 55 videos ranging from reviews and news clips to the aired ads and those left on the cutting room floor, such as this.

You may have bumped into her at one of the Toronto Fashion Week shows, or perhaps caught her backstage getting the scoop on designs from the models (yes, she's that thorough).
Sonja Andic of Toronto Street Fashion is considered by many in the fashion scene to have her fashionista fingers all over the pulse of what's hot.
In her March 26th post, she writes about her new "sleek and sexy" accessory upgrade and is putting it's durability to the test (read her post and you'll understand where we're going with this).

The KRZR default ringer has been the topic of a recent Postcards from the Mothership post. Oh Danigirl, the sincerity of your post and visual imagery were quite an unexpected surprise this morning.
Happy to hear you like the KRZR over your previous model. Happy Monday or should we say 'Hello Moto'!

Meg used her KRZR over the weeekend to capture photos of Lion's Gate Bridge and English Bay which she included in a post discussing how the weather affects her mood.
You can view her additional photos at the KRZRbloggers flickr group.
A big thanks to everyone for continuing to upload their images. There are more than 147 KRZR photos to date.

Well, let's not call it a group yet, as there's only one person in it. But we've got it set up, and we're hoping that any of you testing out the video features of the phone will join in... and (please) create something a little more stimulating than my little tests.
You can access the Youtube krzrbloggers group here (or in the menu at right)
And as always, we'd ask that you tag your videos 'krzr' or 'krzrbloggers' so that we can find and link to them.
Jeremy at Popped Culture is already trying out the video features on his phone. You can check out his video efforts here.

After watching an episode of Star Trek, Jeremy of Popped Culture came to the conclusion that his "cell phone far surpasses the communicators the original Enterprise crew used." Check out his take on the K1, and be entertained by the video of his highly energetic son.
And Jeremy... as Spock once said:
"We simply must accept the fact that Captain Kirk is no longer alive."

Allright, so this is pretty sweet. Rannie over at Photojunkie has gone and set up a krzrbloggers group on Facebook (registration required if you are not already a Facebook user)
Nicely done, and I hope others will join in. As we move into phase II, we will definitely be pointing folks to both Facebook and the flickr group.
Maybe we let Rannie off the hook on the administration side by inviting any folks interested in joining the group to add Ian or I as a friend and we will send you an invite.
Thanks for setting this up, Rannie.

The diversity of the bloggers invited to test drive the KRZR is often highlighted in the way they apply the various features of the KRZR to their blogs or flickr sites.
Case in point, and in her ever-eloquent and soul-baring style, Meg shares a glimpse of her less-than-healthy self via her KRZR.
Germs suck. Hope you're feeling better.

Here's one for the K1 users...
Your mobile phone has what's called a stereo Bluetooth Profile .
Essentially this means that you can wirelessly stream music from your phone to a set of headphones that also have the stereo Bluetooth Profile. Still following me? Check this out...
There's a pair of music headphones (referred to as the S9 in blog buzz and shown on flickr) that are coming to Canada this April. The actual name will be the MOTOROKR S9 Bluetooth Stereo Headphones. You can read about the features in these Engadget and ZDNET reviews. Drop us a line if you want to test them out when they arrive.
