I remember hearing 15-20 android handsets will be launching this year.

Where are they?]]>Aug 25th 2009 1:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/25/motorola-holding-android-event-on-september-10-awesome-new-hand/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/25/motorola-holding-android-event-on-september-10-awesome-new-hand/http://www.phonearena.com/htmls/Motorola-Calgary-phone-pa_3853.html

If Google can make marked improvements in 2.0, Motorolla bring the Sholes out with speedy architecture and Verizon doesn't try to hamstring Android I will be making the leap to Android with the Sholes. Verizon needs to understand that there are a bunch of people looking for an alternative to the iPhone ecosystem.

Google pretty much offers the same services as Apple's MobileMe provides. My requirements are: IMAP email (push is desired but not a must), and a web interface for calendar/contacts that are pushed between my device and the web. Google's web interface is much more responsive than Apple's Mobile Me.

You might have noticed that the above article contains the statement:
""Save The Date," but you know what we're thinking: this is really "Save The Company." Make or break, Moto. Let's do this."
And I think that shows this is a bit contrived not just in my eyes.

P.S. I hope motorola survives this economic climate, they aren't that bad actually and they are amerian and I like there to be some american companies, even if those have grown to have too much pull in the world due to advertising money, but that should be fixed separately somehow.

1) Cheap touchscreen junk that does nothing well.
2) QUERTY slider fashion accessories that are rubbish as an actual phone, and sometimes terrible for texting as well.
3) Expensive and capable smartphones that would be highly usable if the carriers didn't cripple them utterly.

In addition, thanks to the fantastic phones made by RIM, Palm and Apple, more and more nails get hammered into WinMo's coffin and its inability to compete in the market. Microsoft's project Pink will then kill off WinMo's remaining partners just like they did with their PlayForSure partners. Unavoidably, when Pink reveals the WindowsPhone, it will end up in the same black hole as the Zune players. Lastly, opening MS stores in an attempt to push these 2 products will be rejected by customers and will do nothing to improve their stance or marketability.

WinMo's suffered enough, let's let it die in peace.]]>Aug 25th 2009 3:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/25/motorola-holding-android-event-on-september-10-awesome-new-hand/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/25/motorola-holding-android-event-on-september-10-awesome-new-hand/
I don't like WinMo as it is right now, but I think version 7 will change my mind. ]]>Aug 25th 2009 3:55PM
