Motorola's Brand-New Iconic Phone Design 'In Hand' on Hollywood's Biggest Night! LOS ANGELES, Feb. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Motorola makes its annual walk down the red carpet on Hollywood's biggest night by continuing its tradition of providing a not-yet-available, state-of-the-art mobile phone to the Academy Award nominees in the top directing and four acting categories. In honor of their nominations, the 78th Annual Academy Award nominees will receive a special-edition PEBL phone in a gunmetal color finish -- the only consumers to have this edition of the just-available phone. Combining sophisticated technology with innovative design, the special edition Motorola PEBL is sure to help the nominees stand out and shine on their big night. Recipients will also receive Motorola's new H700 Bluetooth(R) headset and three (3) months of T-Mobile wireless service. T-Mobile USA is the exclusive carrier of the PEBL phone. In keeping with Motorola's traditional Oscar phone efforts, the Academy Award's directing and acting nominees' phones are packaged in a custom made, keepsake box. This year's package is reminiscent of a classic movie theatre ticket and is personalized with the category and name of each nominee in acknowledgement of their recognition by the Academy.
