KRZR Blog

Well, it just seemed like yesterday that the campaign started. But here we are at the conclusion of the outreach component of the KRZR campaign. We received lots of great feedback from our KRZRbloggers, and a lot of attention given to this blog, so thanks to one and all.
Our plan is to keep this site up and running as an information resource, and we'll be checking back frequently for comments. However, for any of you that have questions about the KRZR, or require customer service, please contact Motorola's mobile devices customer support line at 1-800-461-4575.
We encourage you to keep talking about the KRZR as the feedback has been extremely insightful, and we'll certainly be looking out for your comments on this blog, your blogs, or elsewhere. Thanks again for all your support, and we'll hope to touch base again on future campaigns.
Brendan and Ian.

The (Product) Red MOTOKRZR is now available in Canada at Rogers Wireless.
What makes this product so special is that Motorola is contributing $8.50 (U.S. bucks) directly to The Global Fund for each (PRODUCT) RED MOTOKRZR sold in Canada.
The (Product) RED initiative was founded by Bono and Bobby Shriver to help raise awareness and money in the fight against AIDS in Africa, with an emphasis on the health of women and children. It engages iconic brands to take on the (PRODUCT) RED mark, and asks them to contribute a percentage of the sales or portion of the profits from that product to the Global Fund.

Ever heard of Joshua Davis?
Aside from pioneering the use of Flash as a commercial and artistic medium, he's known for establishing a new digital-organic visual design language.
In what he calls Dynamic Abstraction, Joshua uses randomization and mathematical algorithms from Chaos Theory to create kaleidoscope-like pieces of work.
Sounds heavy but looks amazing, and Motorola partnered with him to offer this KRZR experience.
If you live in the U.S., you can create your own kaleidoscope piece of art and send it to your phone.
If you live in Canada or elsewhere, you can create a personalized desktop wallpaper.

Geekgirl over at IwantIgot offers her perspectives on the Mobile Phone Tools software that came with her KRZR.
While it's always difficult commenting on questions more closely tied to personal taste, one question we can answer is why, when she connects the phone to her computer, she’s repeatedly prompted to install the USB modem software. The short answer: Motorola USB Modem software is part of Mobile Phone Tools, which means that if you try to run MPT without installing that USB software, it will keep asking you to do so.
We hope that helps, and we look forward to more feedback.
