well I have a Moto e815 now and want to get a smartphone with one-handed operation. I like the Moto Q, but don't know which one to get. I have my new every 2 and I am going to get the ulimited $80 per month voice and data plan if I get the Q. So I could pretty much get the phone for free if I get the silver one cause it has a $100 mail in rebate. The black only has a $50 mail in rebate... so now a couple questions..

1.) Is the black any better than the silver, is it just the color that's different? how about the software?

2.) How is the battery life of the Q versus something like my e815? I heard the Q's had horrible battery life that's why I have been waiting for so long to get it, but I hear the new software is supposed to fix this.. just don't know how well it works now with battery compared to a regular cell phone?

3.) I see there is a new Q Pro coming out, but it looks only like there is going to be some new software for enterprise use, which I don't need. Is there anything else that is worth waiting for the Q pro? different design, battery life, usability, etc.?

4.) I heard rumors of a Q2 but not sure if this is true or when it will be out. Is it better to wait and see what happens? I just don't want to lock into a 2-year contract to turn around and see a better Q come out in a month.

Thanks!
