More information about the latest Motorola Z9 rumored handset surfaced, when a simple leaflet has been discovered and uploaded on the Internet.

A week ago we found some leaked info about Motorola's slider and some bad looking pictures taken from the FCC's website. Even then, with only few information
regarding the Z9, we knew that it's just a mid-level handset, which strongly resemble other Motorola's slider. In fact, all the Motorola 'Z' series looks pretty much the same in terms of design, only technical specifications are changing a little bit.

Motorola Z9 slider doesn't come up with any innovations, so don't look for new stuff. The handset measures 114 x 53.6 x 13.9 mm and weighs around 140 grams (including battery). The average 2 Megapixel camera features flash capabilities and 8x digital zoom, but that's not much of a fuss, as almost all Motorola's latest handsets include such a camera module.

As seen in the pictures, the slider features external dedicated music keys that might suggest the target of the device. You might think that it is targeted at young people, but the leaflet specifies clearly that the phone has been especially developed for '34-year-old life chaser whose phone is a critical connection tool'.

Furthermore, Motorola Z9 offers Bluethooth 2.0 and USB 2.0 connectivites, DRM support to purchase music from over 200 online music stores, Windows Media Player 11, A-GPS to get turn-by-turn driving directions and maps, microSD card slot for memory expansion (up to 8GB), CrystalTalk technology that helps users hear clearly even in noisy environments.
The 950 mAh Li-Ion battery has a life expectancy of 6 hours in talk time mode and about 13 days in standby mode.

It seems that there will be 2 different versions of the Motorola Z9, one for each region. The one that will be available on the US market features HSDPA (3.6 Mbps) and is quad-band, while the European version of the device will only feature GPRS and EDGE Class 12. No price has been revealed yet, but it can't be too much as this is a simple mid-level slider.
