Enjoy!

The only caveat I'd toss in there is that you're pinning hopes
on a feature list rather than a large # of humans actual real world
experience/review with a production phone.

As a counterpoint, the original Razr looked like a wonderful in the
marketing brochure and feature list, but was a performance turd for
many with short battery life, slow response time, spotty production
consistency, many reported lousy rf and audio, etc.
