Contacts.
Your MOTOBLUR account
Only MOTOBLUR syncs contacts, posts, feeds,
messages, emails, photos and much more—from
sources like Facebook®, Twitter, MySpace, your work
email, Picasa™, and Photobucket®—and serves them
up just the way you want them. No opening and
closing apps and menus, it’s all front and center on
your home screen and throughout the entire phone, so
you can communicate anyway you like.
You can log into this account from a computer to
upload contacts, reset your password, get help, or
even locate your phone:
www.motorola.com/mymotoblur

Cool content & more
Browse and download thousands of the coolest apps
on the planet from Android. On top of that, you get a
full HTML browser, so you can surf in style.
Download new apps with “Apps & updates” on
page 11. Your phone comes with a microSD memory
card installed—you can load it up with photos, videos,
and music from your computer using “Memory card &
file transfer” on page 38.
Note: Do not remove your memory card while your
phone is using it or writing files on it.
Security
Your contacts are backed-up on MOTOBLUR, so don’t
worry. Even if you lose your phone, MOTOBLUR can
help you find it or wipe it. And when you get your next
MOTOBLUR product, your stored info makes it a snap
to set up with just a username and password.
Of course, it doesn't stop there. There are plenty of
ways to protect your phone and your information,
in “Security” on page 41.
