Motorola impresses with pre-loaded apps list for CLIQ

October 19th may be under a month away, but that's still an eternity in "waiting years." Thankfully, Motorola has posted up a handy guide that spells out exactly what kind of pre-loaded software comes with the CLIQ, and we've got to say -- the list is fairly impressive. For starters, users will get access to LastFM, an array of Google features, Yahoo! Mail (funny, real funny), Digg, Mint, Facebook, Twitter, Travel Channel, MTV and Amazon's MP3 Store. On top of all that, Moto's throwing in QuickOffice -- a piece that demands $9.99 on the iPhone -- as well as TeleNav Navigator, which has also found itself on a few other Android-based smartphones over the centuries. Hit the read link for the full list, but only if you don't mind the tease.

We at Motorola ANDROID CLIQ can't wait to get the CLIQ (Dext)

This looks like nicer than the Instinc Q, I hope Sprint gets this soon, and I will switch! Though since they are getting almost every other new phone i doubt it will come anytime soon, if it does it will be one that only network worse than Tmobile... Nexthell. Though for Tmobile, this looks like an sidekick alternative, aren't they somewhat fighting themselves?

Wow, I can't believe my eyes (rub, rub, rub), I see EXCHANGE ACTIVESYNC!

For free, for real??

So...there isn't currently a Mint Android app. Is Moto writing their own, or might there be a real Mint app in the Market? That would be nice for those of us with other Android devices :-)

i don't get the "yahoo! mail" joke. Is yahoo! mail the new aol mail?

[Johnny Tremaine Posted Sep 24th 2009 4:25PM]

It's alluding that nobody, aside from spam-bots, really uses yahoo mail any longer. I had an account with them and stopped checking it over a year ago, due to relentless amounts of mountains and mountains of spam.

@persongr

And you seriously think that when the Sholes is finally released on a better network the Cliq isn't going to be compared to it?

Preloaded apps that will all be 3 versions old by the time you buy the phone! Wheeeee!!!

So THAT'S what all the 350 android developers that Motorola hired have been doing !!!

This means there could be new applications that have not been on the Android Market yet, that could see the light of day first on this phone.

I've been in talks with Motorola for about a month and a half now about my app being built into their system. I am honestly still unsure on what they plan on doing with it...They are awful with their communications, but I'm signed up on their accelerator program while I wait for them to figure out what they are actually doing.
