Motorola Launches Krave ZN4 Touchscreen Flip Phone

Motorola Krave ZN4

Motorola entered the scorching market for touchscreen smartphones with the introduction of the Krave ZN4 for Verizon Wireless. The touchscreen Krave ZN4 features a clear protective screen through which you can access videos, an mp3 music player, photos, and GPS. The drawback of the Krave ZN4 is that you must lift the screen to type messages! I’m sure Motorola will correct this feature misstep, as well as the missing Wifi in a future version of the Krave ZN4.

The Krave ZN4 works on Verizon’s 3G EVDO network, and retails for $149 with a 2-year contract.
