Dext

On November 21, 2007, American communications company Motorola, Inc. filed to protect the trademark DEXT in relation to “mobile telephones” as well as “electronic personal organizers, computer software and programs, computer e-commerce software, computer software for sending and receiving short messages and electronic mail, digital cameras, video cameras” and “wireless telephone services” among other things.

Gizmodo is reporting that Motorola’s upcoming media phones are to be called Motorola ZINE. DEXT could be the name of one of these devices, or some kind of service for ZINE or other devices.

If Motorola needs a new four-letter name for a device (like RAZR, ROKR or KRZR), Mork would humbly suggest the Motorola MORK.
