If you’ve been eyeing the Motorola Devour, we’ve got a little tidbit of information that might pique your interest. It seems that the Devour will be powered by a Qualcomm MSM7627 processor, which is the same processor used by the Palm Pixi and BlackBerry Curve 8530. The MSM7627 comes from the ARM11 family, and sports a 600MHz application processor, which isn’t all that shabby. It’s also been said that the Devour might be shipping with Android 1.6, though there is also speculation that it might be powered by Android 2.1 by the time it’s launched. In case you’ve forgotten, specifications of the Motorola Devour include:

3.1-inch HVGA (480 x 320) capacitive display
600MHz Qualcomm MSM7627 processor
512MB flash ROM, 256MB RAM
3-megapixel camera
Android 1.6 with MotoBlur
3.5mm headphone jack
GPS
Wi-Fi
microSD card expansion
