  • Moto seems to be moving away from any Symbian and Windows Mobile partnership, since they’ve just announced 2 new Android devices that will hit the USA this year and more to come in 2010. Meanwhile, straight from Mother Russia comes Motorola Sholes, an Android-powered device that got rendered and specced.

    Moto official Sanjay Jha claims that Windows Mobile 7 will see the return of Microsoft’s OS to the Motorola smartphones, but right now Android is priority number 1. Back to the Russian render, Motorola Sholes is a mystery device, with a bad, bad codename and interesting specs.

    Sholes packs a 3.7 inch touch-sensitive display with a 480 x 854 pixels resolution, a 16GB memory, 512 MB Flash memory, 256MB RAM and a microSD/microSDHC card slot with support for cards of up to 16GB. The fresh Moto Android phone also incorporates a GPS, a 5 megapixel camera, a 1400 mAh Li-ion battery, Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR1, a 3.5mm audio jack and Wi-Fi support.

    Will this be hitting Verizon or the wall of decayed rumours?

      Wow! Nice phone, 3.7″ display with QWERTY… very unlike what Motorola has done before! Just hope that it's not heavy and thick though!

      Go Moto!
