Congratulations
MOTOROLA FLIPOUT with MOTOBLUR
Introducing the MOTOROLA FLIPOUT with
MOTOBLUR—an innovative phone that's as unique as
you are. What's most intriguing is how its touch
screen rotates on a hinge to expose a QWERTY
keypad with a separate number row for ease of use.
MOTOBLUR is the only service that can sync all your
friends, emails, messages, Facebook™, MySpace,
Twitter and happenings with continuous updates and
back-ups, along with the ability to remotely locate and
wipe your phone if it’s lost or stolen.
Caution: Before assembling, charging or using your
phone for the first time, please read the important
legal and safety information packaged with your
phone. Once your phone is up and running,
touch Menu > Settings > About phone
> Legal information to read the full information.
More information
On your phone—Touch Home > Help centre.
