Devour: The New Motorola Android Phone On Verizon

devour closed

Introducing the Motorola Devour: the next Android phone to be released on the Verizon network.

With a slideout keyboard and a nearly identical design, the Devour is clearly based on the bestselling Motorola Droid.

 

The Devour is designed for those looking to stay connected to the most popular social networks at a reasonable price.  The device will ship with Android 1.6 while running MOTOBLUR, Motorola’s service that synchronizes with Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter to push your friend’s messages and updates directly to the Devour’s active homescreen.

The Devour will feature a slightly smaller touchscreen (3.1-inches with resolution of 320×480) than the Droid.  The Devour’s hardware will not be as cutting-edge as the Droid, resulting in a smaller phone in both price and size.

The Devour will feature Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g, a 3-megapixel camera with geotagging, Bluetooth 2.0, will ship with an 8GB microSD card.

The Devour will be released on the Verizon Wireless network sometime in March, 2010.

At this time, the device’s exact retail price is unknown; it is apparent, however, that the Devour will retail for less than the Motorola Droid.

NYTimes Best Tech Idea: Motorola Droid Dock

Droid Dock

David Pogue, technology guru for the New York Times, has listed his nine best technology ideas this year.

The Motorola Droid Dock and Car Mount were one of those ideas:

The Motorola Droid, of course, is an app phone (that is, an iPhone wannabe with a black rectangular touch screen, etc.). It’s generally a very good one, with slide-out keyboard, excellent speed and the Verizon network.

The winner here isn’t the phone, though — it’s the docks. One $30 plastic dock suctions to your windshield. When you slip the phone into it, hidden magnetic sensors automatically fill the Droid’s screen with Google’s new GPS navigation software, complete with turn-by-turn driving directions, spoken street names, color coding to indicate traffic, map icons (for parking and so on), satellite view and more.

Or buy the $30 home dock. When you insert the Droid, the screen becomes a handsome, horizontal-layout alarm-clock/weather display, complete with buttons that let you access your music or even dim the screen for sleepy time. You have to charge your phone overnight anyway, so why shouldn’t it be doing something useful in the meantime?

Source: NYTimes.com

As someone who also appreciates efficiency in everything, I like Pogue’s comment about the Droid actually performing some function while it charges overnight.

 

Anyway, Amazon.com carries both the Droid Multimedia Docking Station and Motorola’s OEM Window Mount.

 

The Novatel MiFi was also included on David Pogue’s best of ‘09 list. Anyone looking for a wireless internet connection and WiFi router in one small box should check out BuyMiFi.com for more details and deals!

Install Animated Wallpapers As Backgrounds For Your Droid

You can now install and use animated wallpapers as your Droid’s background.

Watch the clip below to view the available wallpapers:

 

Of course, you must jailbreak your Droid (see instructions to jailbreak your Droid here) in order to do so.

Once you’ve successfully rooted your Droid, you’re going to have to install Android 2.1.

And when Android 2.1 is up and running, follow these instructions to install the great-looking animated wallpapers!

 

Be forewarned: following the instructions above are the surest way to NOT BRICK your phone. The user must accept that the Droid’s warranty is invalidated when attempting to jailbreak the Droid, and that only the Droid user is responsibile for all unintended or unwanted consequences of rooting/jailbreak/modding their Droid.
