In the year 2008, Motorola saw a steep decline in its global market share. However, in the beginning of this year It managed to pull it off by making a decent profit. And now it’s time for Motorola’s much awaited Android -powered Smartphone. (There is going to be around additional twenty Android devices towards the end of 2009, one of them being a Samsung launch – Samsung i7500 and two other products by Motorola. G1 and Magic from HTC have already been introduced, while Acer and Sony Ericsson are expected to come out with their Android devices by the end of this year- that is 2009.) So that will make a lot of Android Smartphones in the market, but Motorola’s Sholes is {anticipated} to top all other Android devices, both in terms of looks and applications.
A Quick Peek Into Motorola’s Sholes -
The first time when a little time back, in July, the pictures of Motorola Sholes leaked out, it turned out to be no different than people had hoped. With that I don’t mean the design and features of Sholes weren’t good – the appearance is worth a look. Also, Motorola might be the first Android manufacture to support a physical keyboard.
The Expected Features of Motorola Sholes Are -
• 3.7 inch touch screen(capacitance based)
• 5 mega pixel autofocus camera
• GPS(Global Positioning System)
• Bluetooth 2.0
• A slide out QUERTY keyboard
• 256 MB RAM and 512 ROM
• A micro SDHC slot supposedly supporting card up to 16GB size
• WiFi
• 3.5mm standard headphone jack
That actually seems like a whole lot of killer features.
Motorola Sholes’s Release-
On September 10th, Motorola made a little announcement about Android in San Francisco.
Motorola’s Sholes is rumored to be launched in the market sometime in this month. Hopefully, the resulting Sholes that is brought to the market meets people’s expectations as the look of Motorola’s Sholes did.
