Motorola is certainly making some noise at the CES this time, with its new Z10 slider phone. This slick slider dubbed a “complete, pocket-sized, mobile film studio,” can record high-quality video at 30 frames with its 3.2-megapixel cam, lets users edit those captured clips, create transitions between scenes, and even add a soundtrack or commentary. After all this is done, this video can be uploaded directly to media-sharing websites like YouTube, Google Videos, ShoZu, and Yahoo! The crystal-clear 2.2-inch QVGA screen can display videos at 30 frames per second with 16 million colors.

On the still imaging side, Motorola has not let us down with a dedicated camera button, smart autofocus, and a Superfast burst mode, which can capture up to three images per second. These images, as with the videos, can either be saved or be directly posted to media-sharing websites of choice by the user.

This 3.5G quad-band device supports HSDPA at 3.6Mbps, GPRS, and EDGE, and Bluetooth but there’s no word about integrated WiFi. It runs off Symbian UIQ and can play AMR, AAC AAC+, MP3, WMA, 3GPP, H.263, H.264, and MP4. With support for up to an incredible 32GB via microSD, this device is essentially future proof as far as expansion goes.

The Motorola Z10 is great device if you are an aspiring director and will start shipping out in first quarter of 2008.
