Motorola Android Droid/Tao/Sholes latest news
So the Motorola Android Droid (Tao or Sholes) for Verizon is expected to be announced soon. Till then here are some news about the new Verizon Android phone:
Brighthand reports that it will have a 3.7-inch screen and a resolution of 480 by 854 pixels (WVGA+). It will use Google’s standard Android user interface and not one created by Verizon. Neither will it have MotoBlur, Motorola’s social-networking service that will debut on the Motorola Cliq.
There are disagreements on the rumor sphere whether the phone will have a 500 or 600 MHZ CPU. Some also say that the device also packs a second 430MHz C64x+ DSP + ISP (Image Signal Processor), plus a PowerVR SGX 530 GPU.
Most still speak of a December 1 launch.
