Droid Bionic's secrecy betrayed on Amazon, by simple dock listings
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesMotorolaAmazonDROID BIONIC Etna
We had our hands on a raw version of the Droid Bionic way back at CES, but two listings on Amazon for desktop and car docking stations, uncovered by Android Central forum posters, may give the clearest look at the phone so far. As you can see in the shot above of the desktop dock Motorola's slab appears to have a chrome ring running around the outside, while the dock itself has a 3.5mm audio out, HDMI output and USB ports. There's no price or release date listed for either accessory but if you've been lusting over the beast and its rumored specs we're figuring some quiet time with these shots is just what the doctor ordered -- check after the break for a shot of the car dock and the back of ...

New and improved Motorola Defy heading for AT&T?
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesMotorolaAT&TDEFY
According to This Is My Next, a new and improved version of the Motorola Defy could be making its way to AT&T. The new and improved part, according to the story, would constitute a bump up from a TI OMAP 3610 processor clocked at 800MHz to a TI OMAP 3620 with the slightly faster speed of 1GHz. The other change deals with the version of the Android OS on board. The current model offers Android 2.2 while a new Motorola Defy would come with Gingerbread (Android 2.3.3) installed.
The remaining specs are said to be the same as on the original model which would mean that you could expect the new Defy to offer a 3.7 inch screen with a resolution of 480 x 854, 512MB of RAM and a rear facing 5MP came...

Motorola’s Attempt To Delay Microsoft’s ITC Complaint Has Been Denied
Like UnlikeFiled in: Motorola
Motorola just got a blow from its legal department. Motorola and Microsoft are fighting over their patents in court, Microsoft made a complaint against Motorola to ITC to ban its products in US. Fearing over Microsoft’s patents Motorola Mobility attempted to delay the Microsoft’s ITC Complaint hearing against it, but they were denied today. So we may find the first round result of this case soon, this is similar to Apple’s recent win over HTC over patent infringements. If Microsoft wins the case, Motorola can no longer sell its devices in US.
My quick tip to Motorola Mobility to avoid the case: Make a strategic partnership with Microsoft to make Windows Phone devices leaving the most IP viol...

Virgin Mobile US now offering the Motorola Triumph

Virgin Mobile US has started offering the Motorola Triumph, a mid-range model that is perfect for those who don't like to get tied up with a two-year contract.

With an oddly sized 4.1 inch display, the handset is powered by Android 2.2 which might not be the latest Android build, but at least it will support Adobe Flash.

Android 3.2 Hits Motorola Xoom, SDK Released
Like UnlikeFiled in: Operating SystemsTabletsMotorolaGoogleXOOMAndroid 3.2
Android 3.2 Honeycomb has just been released and it includes a number of bug fixes and other upgrades to the tablet version of Google’s mobile software platform. Moreover, the release shows better support for multiple screen resolutions, which means manufacturers can just go nuts with their screen sizes, within reason. What we have to look forward to are 7-inch Android tablets, which are arguably more portable than their 10-inch counterparts.

International Atrix unlocked bootloader uncovered, hackers around the globe rejoice
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesMotorolaATRIX 4G
That Atrix unlocked bootloader that leaked last month had one nagging limitation -- it was only for the AT&T version of Motorola's dual-core device. Now, thanks to the tireless folks who haunt the XDA forums, all of our international friends rockin' the laptop-dockable handset will soon be free of Moto's chains.

Motorola Fire XT316 brings the portrait QWERTY form factor to China now, Europe later
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesMotorolaFIRE
There’s no kidding about it, but landscape QWERTY sliders are all too common with Android smartphones nowadays, which is evident by prominent devices like the Motorola DROID 3.
Fortunately, the good people of China are being subjected to the still rarely used portrait style QWERTY form factor with the Motorola XT316 – a device that looks similar to the Motorola DROID Pro and XPRT in the US. This affordably priced handset features a 2.8” QVGA display, 600MHz Qualcomm MSM7227-1 processor, 3-megapixel camera, 256MB of RAM, 512MB of ROM, microSD card slot, 1,420 mAh battery, HSPDA, Wi-Fi, and Moto Switch UI running on top of Android 2.2 Froyo.

Motorola UK offering free wireless keyboard and mouse with Xoom tablet purchase
Like UnlikeFiled in: NotebooksMotorolaXOOM
We know Motorola has started slashing prices of the Motorola Xoom Wi-Fi tablet pretty much everywhere, though we’re not sure whether it’s the result of poor sales and increased competition or the upcoming release of Xoom 2. Whatever the reason behind Moto’s decision to cut prices is, we love it for allowing more people to enter the “tablet space.”
Instead of directly cutting prices, Motorola has a bit different strategy in the UK. At the moment of this writing, their British division is offering free wireless keyboard and mouse with every Xoom tablet purchase. The deal is good while stocks last, so you better hurry.

Sprint To Finally Launch The Motorola Titanium On July 24th?
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesMotorolaTITANIUM
Remember the Motorola Titanium? No? Don’t worry: it’s been over two months since Sprint announced it. That’s, like, a million years in the gadget world.
For those who need a recap (I did!), the Titanium is a super-rugged followup to last year’s i1, so it’s resistant to dust, shock, vibration, extreme temperatures, the opposite sex, low pressure, and solar radiation — oh, and it’s Android-powered.
As is par for the course these days, Sprint made no mention of pricing or a release date in the original announcement. Fortunately, the guys over at SprintFeed got their hands on the flyer up above, which spills all the relevant beans: it’ll go for $150 after contract, and launch on July 24th.

Droid 3 sadly shipping with locked bootloader
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesMotorolaDROID 3
Well, we hate to be the bearers of bad news but, looks like the Droid 3 will not be shipping with the unlocked bootloader Motorola promised us. According to a Motorola support forum manager the latest, landscape QWERTY slider from the company is not sporting the new unlockable firmware found on the Xoom. Now, before everyone gets up in arms, lets remember that Moto said it wouldn't be offering the new bootloader till "late 2011," and it's entirely possible the Droid 3 could shed those shackles with a future software update. So, we understand you're a little disappointed but, patience is a virtue friends.
