Launch for the Ruby was pegged at Q1 2009, so it looks like Motorola waited until the last minute to pull the plug. According to the initial rumors, the company planned several products in a variety of form-factors based on the Ruby design.

Motorola cans RAZR 3 (Ruby), tells Android to, “Holla!”
Boy Genius Report —
Motorola’s plans are thwarted once again by canning the highly anticipated RAZR 3, codenamed Ruby.

Though the original RAZR was wildly successful, going from overpriced down to free in just a year and a half after its release, the RAZR 2 failed to see the same results. It’s hard to say whether the RAZR 3 would have seen a come back for Motorola, but anything that can be ...
