Motorola to launch 2GHz Android phone in 2010
Comments off · Posted by admin in Adobe Flash, Android (operating system), Gyroscope, High-definition video, Nvidia Tegra
Conceivably Tech cites anonymous MOTOEXEC who was a little more chatty, talking up a device intended to “incorporate everything that is technologically possible in a smartphone today.” Whoa.
Manufacturers usually seem to avoid this “smartphone utopia” scenario like the plague, if for no other reason than to avoid destroying sales of current smartphones.
However, if this 2GHz chip-packing Android-based device with Nvidia Tegra graphics, Flash 10.1, gyroscope, HD video recording and output, HD screen and a greater-than-5-megapixel camera comes to life — especially by the end of this year — we could be looking at just that.

Motorola Droid ‘Shadow’ Coming To Verizon In July?!
Comments off · Posted by admin in Motorola Shadow
A snapshot of a mysterious Motorola handset has been spotted in the wild with the Verizon logo on it. It is most probably Motorola Droid 2 a.k.a ‘Shadow’ Android phone supposed to launch on Verizon in July with Froyo.
It is supposed to rock with an 8MP camera capable of capturing 720p HD video. Motorola Shadow – as far as we know- will be launched with Android Froyo on it. On Hardware front, a 512MB RAM, a 4.3inch 800×484 capacitive multitouch screen, and an HDMI port are most likely to appear. If Shadow is really droid’s successor then I would predict a slide-out QWERTY keyboard as well.
Motorola Shadow is supposed to be nearly 9mm thick and might hit the markets in July.

Saygus Vphone Will Be a High-End Android Smartphone
No comments · Posted by admin in V1 news
A small company might make a big noise in the Android market: the Saygus Vphone will be a high-end smartphone with a large touchscreen, sliding keyboard, and a video-conferencing camera.
In many ways, this upcoming smartphone will resemble both the Motorola Droid and the Nokia N900. It have a 3.5-inch capacitive touchscreen with a WVGA (800 x 480) resolution. This will slide aside to reveal a 4-row QWERTY keyboard.
The Saygus Vphone is scheduled for release early next year. It will be an option for Verizon users, but not one offered by this carrier. This phone will be part of a program that lets third-party phone makers sell models directly to the public that have been certified for use on Verizon’s network. Customers will then be responsible for getting service separately.
Pricing has not yet been announced.

It’s not easy to find an Android phone that hasn’t been churned out by the HTC factory. The Saygus Vphone is a smartphone from a Utah-based company that promises a nifty handset with one unique feature: the ability to make two-way video calls even on an EDGE network.
“We have designed our own proprietary video calling software that’s optimized so you can get three to four hours of video calling capability on extremely low bandwidths,” says Chad Sayers, founder and CEO of Saygus.
Video conferencing is still a novelty in smartphones. It can guzzle bandwidth and carriers have been hesitant to support the applications. Saygus says its video calling software can change that. It won’t bog down the network and can run 18-22 frames a second on Edge network and up to 30 frames a second on 3G. Saygus estimates that 5GB of bandwidth can support 10,000 minutes of video conferencing on the phone.
Saygus also hopes to partner with Skype to bring Skype video calling to the phone.
