It seems that Motorola is preparing another Android smartphone, codenamed Shadow or Mirage. Moto Shade / Mirage is also a high-end mobile phones that Android comes with a 4.3-inch screen WVGA 850X484.

The shadow of the Moto is a rumored phone specifications are not confirmed yet. It is likely that had come with fairly high end specifications, including an HDMI port, 8 megaqpixel camera with HD (1080p) playback capability and video all packed into a case of 9mm. The phone is now still a mystery, but more details will probably appear soon.

Motorola has just unveiled a new touchscreen phone with the Motorola brand called Crush. The crush is a EV-DO Rev. Device with an interesting design, with the power and lock the keys above its 2.8-inch, 240 x 400 pixel touch screen, and not all the keys under it.

The phone also includes a virtual QWERTY keyboard, a tap-to-silence, stereo Bluetooth, music player, 3.5mm headphone jack, 2MP camera, MicroSD card support (up to 16GB) and a battery of 950 mAh. Motorola Crush should be available throughout the U.S. cell before the end of 2009. The price of the phone was not announced, but Motorola says it will be affordable.

Update: U.S. Crush Celular Motorola sells for $ 80 with a contract agreement for 2 years and after a $ 50 mail-in rebate.

The Droid Motorola is undoubtedly one of the hottest phones Moto had, and maybe that’s why the company plans to launch a similar phone in China. This device is called Motorola and is a oPhone MT710, which means running the Android operating system customized for China Mobile.

The MT710 is similar to the droid, but no slide-out QWERTY keyboard. Its characteristics are also similar, including a 3.7-inch touchscreen with 845 x 480 pixels and Wi-Fi. The smartphone will also feature connectivity TD-SCDMA and CMMB (China Mobile Multimedia Broadcasting) support.

Boy Genius revived an old rumor again today, with not one but two sources to back the claim up. Generally the more sources there are, the more reliable the claim. The old rumor was that an 8 GB iPhone 3GS was on its way to replace out the 3G model; from what it sounds like, this could be happening before the holidays hit.

It seems more realistic now than when the rumor surfaced previously, mainly because now AT&T is concerned about the buzz around the Motorola Droid being comparable to the iPhone. A move like this would certainly continue to give the competitive edge to Apple and AT&T for now.

My thoughts: it’s about time. The holidays can’t come soon enough. My concern is, though, that only AT&T is rumored to be making the leap at this point. Are other iPhone carriers planning on releasing the 8 GB version of the 3GS as well?

Ultimately my dream would be for the 16 GB 3GS to drop in price to $99, and have a 64 GB iPhone 3GS come out just before the holidays at the $299 price point. But I’ll settle for an 8 GB in 3GS flavor for now.
