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.
