But I wouldn't hold me breath for any of these except the K3 or Z6 on Cingular...

Oh baby. The UI sucks but our 2mp camera has autofocus and the outer LCD is damn near as big as the inner.

If you mean Motorola - I am sure they will to. They are money hungry just like every other company, and no company is going to put off putting phones for 5 more months just so they can wait for the iPhone, i dont see why they would either way.

I see Cingular getting the K3, maybe the Z6, and I would see them also offering as a Cingular exclusive the SCPL series, since they have done the same for ever other major slim phone series released by Motorola (Razr, Slvr). Cingular loves Motorola.

Just my 2 cents worth

An un-implied agreement wasn't met (like for letting you have this exclusive, maybe in the future you'll consider purchasing your network equipment from us.) At any rate, somebody, rubbed somebody the wrong way and now Moto is no longer in Cingys back pocket. Thoughts???
