Amp’d reinvents Motorola Q with a Flash Lite UI

motorola Q 

Via Mariam “Youth-oriented mobile carrier Amp’d got their first smartphone today in the Motorola Q – but this isn’t quite the Q you know from Verizon and Sprint. Amp’d has completely redone the user interface in Adobe’s Flash Lite, into an animated carnival of … well, it looks a lot like Amp’d’s animated Amp’d Live interface on their other phones. The Q also plays Amp’d TV and all of Amp’d’s content – a real breath of fresh air compared to other carriers who don’t have versions of their popular entertainment apps for smartphones. And it’s still a Q, which means that you can send e-mail, sync with your PC, and maybe even get some work done.”

Amp’d’s Q will sell for $199 sometime in April. Get it at get.ampd.com.

Its really great to see Flash lite UI everywhere as designers can play a lot and create more interactive experiences.
