Motorola Android MOTOROI Coming To T-Mobile USA?
Earlier reports indicated that Motorola Android MOTOROI might be available on Verizon Wireless, but now word is going around that T-Mobile might be the carrier that will be offering this interestingly-shaped phone. While there isn’t any official word on this just yet, leaked reports a while back indicated that a version of the Motorola Droid without a sliding keyboard would be headed towards T-Mobile, and the MOTOROI would fit that bill nicely. Aside from that, earlier information regarding this phone included descriptions such as “Sholes Tablet T-Mobile US”, not to mention that the FCC approved a phone code-named Sholes, which would support T-Mobile USA’s unique 3G network.

Motorola Devour: DroidRedoes Calgary For Verizon With Android 2.1
We first heard about the Motorola Calgary WAY before any mention of the Sholes, Tao or Droid ever occurred. At one point it was the Calgary – NOT the Droid – that was destined to be the first Android Phone for Verizon.

And the latest rumors are that it will touch down as the Motorola Devour A555.

Here is what we’ve got in terms of rumored specs:
- Touch-sensitive Android keys (Menu/Home/Back
- Optical joystick (performs well)
- Full QWERTY keyboard
- 3 megapixel camera
- 3.5mm headset jack
- GPS
- digital magnetometer
- Wi-Fi
- microSD slot

T-Mobile Losing Interest In Motorola Cliq?
While hype for the Motorola Cliq was high, sales of the phone have unfortunately turned out to be unexpectedly low. So low in fact, that Oppenheimer analyst Ittai Kidron says T-Mobile has actually lost interest in the device–due in part to lingering issues with battery life. T-Mobile spokeswoman Alexandra Trask told FierceWireless that sales have been positive and disputes reports that Cliq sales were “falling behind sales targets.” Confirming a future OTA update for the Cliq, no detail was given regarding what would be addressed in the update or whether or not battery life was a prime reason for the update. Trask also denied reports of the device receiving less support, stating that “It’s very prominently featured in our stores. We’re doing a lot from a marketing perspective and merchandising perspective.”
