Verizon: Use your Motorola Droid or HTC Imagio as a FiOS TV remote
Verizon posted a note on its forums that says FiOS TV customers can use their Verizon Wireless Android powered Motorola DROID or the Windows Mobile powered HTC Imagio as a remote to control their FiOS set-top box. The software allows you to control channels, pause/rewind/face forward, set parental controls, record TV shows, and even transfer photos from your phone to your television. If a phone call comes through, your TV will be automatically muted.

Motorola reportedly doing all Android in 2010
Motorola is among the top Android phone manufacturers right now, and it looks like it’s going to increase its standing in 2010. CNet Asia spoke with Spiros Nikolakopoulos, VP and GM of Asia Pacific and International Distribution for Moto’s Mobile Devices end, who says:
- Look for 20 to 30 smartphones worldwide in 2010 “and, at this moment, all of them will run Android.”
- One-third of Moto’s Android engineering team is in the U.S., another third in Korea and another third in China. No word on how many people that entails.
- The “Motoroi” brand is specifically for Korea. the Chinese version of the phone will go by a different name. (And we assume the U.S. version, too, if and when it comes here.)
- Opening up MotoBlur is “on the cards”, but no time frame was given.

Over 20,000 Apps Now Available For Android
One way of noticing that the Android OS is poised for a big breakthrough at the expense of Windows Mobile, Symbian and other operating systems designed to run on various mobile devices, is the number of applications already available for download in the platform’s own application store, Android Market. Lo and behold, that number hit the 20,000 milestone just moments ago, a little over 5 months since it reached 10,000 apps.

Unknown Motorola Android Titanium visits FCC en route to Verizon or Sprint?
The previously unknown Motorola Titanium visited the FCC with some information that lets us make an educated guess as to which carrier(s) this handset will end up on. The device runs over Ev-Do rev. A which tells us that the Titanium looks Verizon or Sprint bound. Wi-Fi is enabled on this phone and since Motorola is not really doing much in the way of Windows Mobile gadgets these days, we can make the assumption that this will be powered by Android.

In new ad, AT&T, Luke Wilson say Verizon is slow
The battle between AT&T and Verizon has been peppered by startling doses of objectivity. So to demonstrate the clear, obvious, incontrovertible fact that Verizon’s 3G is but a Wendy’s-stuffing, cake-loving, 15-beers-a-night slob when compared with AT&T’s Usain Bolt, Wilson performs a side-by-side that would put the Pepsi Challenge to shame.
