This device looks too HTC-bricky. I want something with what the French call ‘le sex-appeal.’ There’s been a lot of buzz about Motorola and Android – presumably they will make an attempt at design – which made this news surprising and disappointing:

Motorola: No Android Handset Before Christmas 2009
http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/2008/10/motorola-no-and.html

“…the company said its first Android-based smartphone won’t be on the market until the holiday season — in 2009.

Though the first handset will be out late next year, the company plans to offer many more based on Android OS in 2010, say company executives.

But by then Motorola is likely to find itself playing catch-up to its rivals. HTC’s first Android-based phone, the T-Mobile G1, was released last week, even as LG and Samsung are reportedly developing handsets based on the platform for launch early next year.”

LG kit is nowhere to be found in the UK…I reckon it’s down to Samsung. Not by Crimbo, tho.

[...] the web is full of more false rumours than a BBC documentary. I previously reported there would be no Google Gears on early versions, I was clearly wrong (oh, the shame). Post tags: Android, Android Community, Browser, Chrome, [...]
