Verizon asks 'if the iDoesn't, what does?' {Engadget}
Oct 17th 2009 3:53PM Why does not one realize that Verizon turned down the iPHONE because Apple offered up a bad deal. AT&T not only has to give some of the subscription money to Apple, they also had to change their whole network so that the iPHONE access iTUNES.
If you want to bad mouth the decision you can try, but check out the stock prices of each. It is pretty obvious which company made the correct decision.

Oct 17th 2009 3:51PM Uh, that would be 45M devices over 3 years and that includes the iTOUCH.
Oh, and Apple represents 1% of global phone sales.
Motorola CLIQ review {Engadget Mobile}
Oct 15th 2009 10:41AM @AE
What are you talking about? For the past year Motorola and SEMC have been neck and neck. Motorola will still do 50-60M phones this year, way above anyone else you mentioned.
Motorola has been hurting a lot, but they are still way above Fujitsu, Sharp, Huwei, HTC, and RIM.
Motorola Phone Portal enables WiFi PC-to-phone connections, browser-based management {Engadget}
Oct 7th 2009 12:14PM I have used Motorola Phone Tools for years, it works great for me. You can easily sync your contacts, pictures and video. I have also used it to create ring tones.
Verizon Motorola Sholes not running MOTOBLUR? {Engadget}
Oct 6th 2009 5:29PM It has nothing to do with Verizon, some people need to get over that.
This is a Google Experience phone, which means the UI is controlled by Google. No UI changes.

Did you really write that everyone is concerned with Sholes and than accuse Motorola of not listening to customers? If they are coming out with the phone everyone wants wouldn't that imply that they have been listening?
Motorola Entice comes to Verizon, available today {Engadget Mobile}
Sep 23rd 2009 9:40AM Your an idiot, you do realize that phones like this vastly outsell smartphones?
And look, a $39 phone that has a 2MP camera and A2DP. Wonder if it can do MMS out of the box?
Android Battle: CLIQ edition {Engadget}
Sep 10th 2009 9:49PM It is disappointing that Engadget can't take 5 minutes and dig into this better.
The MSM7201 is the chipset on the Android reference platform, so it makes sense that everyone's first Android phone would use that chipset. To use a different chipset than the reference platform for the first phone would be foolish. After they get comfortable with the OS you will see chipset variation.
In addition most chipsets weren't Android capable yet. Google made the decision (correctly) to support one chipset originally and focus on maturing Android.
You will see more variation on the chipsets under the hood very soon, as manufacturers get to their second and third Android handsets.
Motorola CLIQ finds a home on T-Mobile's website {Engadget}

T-Mobile G1 won't see any Android updates beyond 1.5 (update: maybe it will) {Engadget}
Aug 17th 2009 3:50PM In Google's defense though, HTC released the G1 completely on their own. The plan was not to have an Android phone last year, the first Android phones were suppose to be released this year. HTC finished the OS and released a phone early in order to be first. In doing so, the internal memory is to small.
I agree the article took liberties, and the G1 may in fact get Donut. But with each new release the chances the G1 can support it get smaller and smaller. I doubt it will be able to support Eclair.
Why do you think it has taken so long for the second Android phone to be released.
