Motorola Sholes To Be Called Droid

on 10/03/2009 08:10 PDT

You’ve probably heard of the Motorola Sholes or Motorola Tao at some point in time, and to further add to the confusion; it seems that the device will actually be called the Motorola Droid when it’s released on Verizon Wireless. While the name isn’t official yet, word on the street is that this Android-powered device will not run MOTOBLUR, and will be offering Adobe Flash support natively. Specifications of device include:

3.7? screen
854×480 WVGA capacitive screen
5 megapixel camera
ARM Cortex 500MHz CPU
Facial recognition using the built-in camera (apparently you take a photo of someone and Google will pull in search results based on the image)
Custom Motorola Interface/UI, no MOTOBLUR, no Verizon UI
Available in black and titanium colors

Android Android is mobile operating system from Google. The software was originally built by a company called Android Inc, that was purchased by Google in 2005. From its modest debuts, Android has become a powerhouse that powers not only smartphones and tablet, but a host of other less high-profile devices and gadgets. Although Android is not a community-driven project, Google does release the source code as open-source under the Apache license.
