Filed under: Handsets , Motorola , Rogers Wireless , GSM , EDGE , HSDPA , UMTS Mil-spec (and mil-spec-esque) hardware seems to be all the rage lately, so Motorola was more than happy to oblige when Rogers asked for some rough-looking gear to slot into its lineup.

Filed under: Handsets , RIM , Rogers Wireless , GSM , EDGE Somebody has let the BlackBerry out of the bag chez Rogers, as we're now seeing alleged marketing material for the flippable Kickstart 8220 spinning its way on to the internet.
