What would you get if you took Motorola's QA1 Karma, gutted it of 3G, and dialed up the boxy factor a notch or three? We think you'd end up with something a lot like this, a phone alleged to be the A45 "Murano." The A series is still a rarity in Moto's lineup so we don't have a ton of hardware to compare it with, but one member of the series is Verizon's Rival -- and you can definitely see a little familial resemblance there. Looks like it'll have a 2 megapixel camera, but otherwise, this sucker's a mystery; Motorola's been making moves in Brazil lately, though, so we could definitely buy that this'll end up popping in South America before we see it stateside.

We were so beguiled by AD's bamboo-bound smartphone that we had to track down the designer to get some hands-on time with these work-in-progress prototypes.
