Hands-on video of the Motorola CLIQ XT / QUENCH
Mobile Burn has a review and a video of the Motorola CLIQ XT. Here are the highlights:
The most obvious change is the lack of the CLIQ’s keyboard, which results in the phone being 2.5mm or so thinner. It also feels much more solid, and is better looking to my eyes. The d-pad controller is gone, but has been replaced by a touch sensitive navigation device below the display. The new hardware buttons underneath the display are also an improvement, as is the addition of a flash to the camera.
Overall, it looks like a nice new addition to the Motorola family of Android handsets.

Motorola tells DROID owners to chill, Android 2.1 will be here soon
After Motorola apparently was premature in telling DROID owners to expect Android 2.1 to be sent to their machine this week, owners of Motorola’s flagship device were nursing broken hearts. Motorola removed all posts in its forum and web site having to do with the upgrade, including a list of what changes the upgrade was to bring to the DROID.
In response to an email from Phonescoop, Motorola said on Thursday, “The Droid over-the-air software upgrade is expected to rollout soon. It will automatically be pushed to phones when ready and Verizon Wireless customers will only have to accept the free download for continued use and enjoyment of this feature packed device.”

Motorola Posts 4Q Profit but Outlook Is Low

Motorola Inc. showed progress in its turnaround efforts Thursday but a disappointing profit forecast sent its shares sliding.
Motorola stock fell 73 cents, or 9.9 percent, to $6.67 in morning trading.
The shares are still more than double what they were trading for in March, as optimism has grown that Motorola can salvage its cell phone business. The first fruits of its new approach, the Cliq and Droid smart phones, went on sale in the fourth quarter.
Those phones were well received, and Motorola reporting shipping 2 million units. But overall cell phone sales were lower than expected, at 12 million units. Total revenue came to $5.7 billion, missing the average forecast from analysts of $5.9 billion, according to Thomson Reuters.
However, analysts did not appear to have taken into account that Motorola deferred $200 million in revenue from sales of smart phones, amortizing it instead over two years, in a new accounting step.
Looking ahead, Motorola said it expects a loss in the first quarter of 1 cent to 3 cents per share, excluding unusual items. Analysts expected a profit of 3 cents.
Motorola co-CEO Sanjay Jha said the loss would come from the planned launch of several new smart phones, with the attendant sales, marketing and support costs. At the same time, he expects smart phone sales to be down from the fourth quarter, when Verizon Wireless put a massive push behind the Droid.
