Motorola, a global leader in broadband, wireless and automotive technologies, introduced the new model A840, one of the first mobile handsets to combine both CDMA and GSM technologies for worry-free global roaming. The Motorola A840 allows you to be almost anywhere in the world and segue seamlessly from CDMA to GSM so you can keep talking, working, viewing or downloading without interruption. With its single-number experience, the Motorola A840 is among the first handsets to fulfill the real promise of seamless mobility: it makes life a lot easier.
No more lost connections – or lost business
Welcome to a world of communications without borders, where neither travel nor location nor technology transition impacts clear, crisp, seamless connectivity. The Motorola A840 handset combines 800/1900 CDMA, CDMA 1X and 900/1800 GSM, GPRS modes with seamless network switching to give you the peace of mind that you’ll have the best signal available for both voice and data services most anywhere in the world. With the model A840 you can access the same content over GPRS in other locations as you would in your own home CDMA market.
“The Motorola A840 is the perfect example of Motorola’s continued commitment in bringing innovative technological advancements to the wireless world,” said Tim Cawley, senior vice president and general manager, Motorola CDMA Product Group. “This handset has incredible reach to almost any corner of the globe. You can travel from the US to Europe to China yet never lose touch with colleagues, friends, or family. Think of it as ‘extreme global communications.’”
For globetrotting professionals, the model A840 delivers the ability to check and send e-mail, conduct meetings using the office-quality built-in speakerphone, surf the Internet and download and send information seamlessly almost anywhere in the world.
Fun without borders
The Motorola A840 brings fashionable fun to the perfect productivity tool. The new mobile is packaged in a stylish clamshell design with an integrated MP3 player, removable Trans-Flash memory, large 2.2-inch brilliant color display speaker-independent speech recognition, compelling gaming experience, and 1.2 megapixel integrated camera to guarantee that your free time is as exhilarating, entertaining, and easy whether you’re home or on the other end of the globe.
In addition to global connectivity, the Motorola A840 provides everyday features like call waiting, call forwarding, and voicemail notification that allow you to work and play without worry.
Whether you’re a road warrior for work or a world traveler for play, the Motorola A840 takes global communications to a grand new level. It’s a whole new world.
