  Naming MING
  
  “The name MING was chosen to resonate more deeply with people in Hong kong than a traditional model name or number can,” said Terence Ma, director of sales, Mobile Devices Business, Motorola Hong Kong. “Like the design and usability of the phone itself, MING will help bring our smart phones into entirely new market segments.”
  
  The Chinese character “ming” is formed by combining the ideographs representing the sun and the moon. “Ming” means bright, clear, overt or open, clear-sighted, and to understand.
  
  “There were many aspects of this product that inspired us to name it MING,” said Terence Ma. “The bright display, the clear flip cover, the high-resolution camera, the superb handwriting recognition, and the features designed to keep the life of an executive clear and comprehensible truly make MING the unifying concept of this device.”
