HUH????
We already knew the mpx100/mpx110 was being dropped - this article in no way says that Orange has dropped the mpx220, as your previous news item suggested, simply that it has been delayed. |

It was MPx100, not MPx110. This new article underlines that Orange decided not to promote new Motorola phones but instead decided to concentrate on C500, what effectively means: dumped MPx220 as far as "now" is concerned. |

I'm not sure that 'dumped' is a fair call...
Deferred, maybe?
How can any company advertise a phone that has no firm shipping date?
Once the MPX220 has been released and Orange has the opportunity to sell them, which I'm sure they will, then one can make a judgment on if they have 'dumped'. |

| You obviously do not have a firm grasp of the english language, msmobiles. The word "dump" is generally understood to mean that something that was being carried is abandoned, not just delayed until they think the market is right. |
