It always seems that whenever I buy a high tech gadget a better model is released within a month or two.
I would LOVE to own this Amp'd Q!
Another cool toy to add to my wishlist.

Does it have a different OS or is it Windows Mobile 5? Because the way that picture is.. they have a different OS.

I'm pretty sure the Amp'd Moto Q is running off WM5. The screen shown is probably their Amp'd Live application for your media.
