With Motorola Android phones staged to enter the market this week in San Francisco, speculations are ripe about its features, form, price, promotion and of course capabilities. Christy Wyatt, vice president of software applications and ecosystem at Motorola, who selected Android as a software platform for the company, threw some light on Motorola’s Android debut. iPhone is a crowd puller for developers with a good business model and all, but there is a growing interest in Android with more investments taking place, she said. The Linux-based OS of Android, Google’s multimedia framework and Internet focus, will be attractive to Web-based developers. The rich set of APIs and the interest shown by the developer community were reasons for Motorola to adopt the Android platform, revealed Wyatt. She also said that Motorola’s MotoDev program is very developer friendly with rich APIs and a good business model. Motorola will offer developers access to various channels aimed at different customers so that they could develop ad-subsidized or subscription-based models. Will Motorola’s gamble work? With such careful planning, market research efforts, and technical R&D behind the company’s agenda, I certainly hope the outcome has to be nothing but success.

Motorola yesterday sent out an invitation to what many bloggers assumed to be the launch of its hotly anticipated Android handsets, and which Om noted also happened to fall on Sept. 10, the date of our Mobilize 09 mobile Internet conference. Nope, it’s not a coincidence. The handset maker has confirmed that Motorola’s co-CEO Sanjay Jha will launch the company’s Android portfolio during his keynote speech at our event. Source:gigom.com

Just on the heels of the details we revealed last week about Motorolas secret Android phone project, Android and Me blog has gotten some seriously juicy gossip.

According to hardware specs posted on the blog Android and Me, Motorolas forthcoming Android phones pack some serious firepower. T-Mobile is rumored to be launching a Motorola Android device codenamed Morrison on Oct. 21. According to the Android and Me post, the Morrison will feature an HVGA display, a Qualcomm MSM7201A 528 MHz processor, 256 MB of RAM memory, a 5-megapixel camera, WiFi, 3.5 mm headset jack, video recording and an internal compass.

Well I have some breaking news... a reliable source tells me that Motorola, who is known to have been working on some Android devices for release later this year, is indeed working on something really big. Since they have been out of the game for quite a while they are really ready to come back with a big bang. And whats the best way to do that? Well for that we have to look back at the past.The real reason that the Motorola RAZR was such a phenomenon was not its functionality but rather its appealing look and shape. It was the most super slim device when it launched and everyone went crazy for it. Well, thats exactly what Motorola is trying to do with the secret Android phones that they have been working on. I am working to get my hands on some images and will post them soon but what I was told is that indeed the Android smartphones from Motorola will start launching early 4th quarter just in time for Xmas. One of them in particular will be super thin and have a slide out QWERTY keyboard too! Plus it has a 5 megapixel camera. Can you stand it? As of now, looks like Verizon Wireless and Vodafone will get exclusive first dibs. All in all Motorola is working on 5 secret devices, and three of them are specifically based on the Android platform. The other two are Windows Mobile OS. While the smartphone market is definitely crowded, a RAZR like smartphone device would be a great entry into the arena and maybe even a game changer. Motorola has done it before and they can certainly do it again. Android is expected to gain in popularity and will be the mobile OS for many phones due out later this year. Just today, the myTouch 3G was launched at T-Mobile as the second Android phone in the US market.
