Motorola makes the Charm and its full QWERTY keyboard official
Can’t say we didn’t see this one coming, but Motorola has gone ahead and made the anything but a secret Charm official. However, the Backtrack rear trackpad was something we didn’t see coming. So along with Android 2.1 and the enhanced version of Motoblur running on a 2.8-inch multitouch touchscreen, the Charm features a rear panel trackpad just like the Motorola Blackflip found on AT&T.
T-Mobile will be the exclusive US carrier with the release expected sometime this summer. The exact date and expected price wasn’t mentioned, though.
News on the latest Android device from the kings of capslock, the Motorola Charm, has started floating around the internet.
Clocking in at a pretty-hot-a-year-ago 600MHz, with a better-than-my-current-Android-phone 512MB of RAM and ROM, the Charm’s specs confirm that it will form part of T-Mobile’s lower-end handset line-up.
I gotta say, it’s pretty great that lower-end phones have specs like this. Only a year ago, specs like these were tip-top-of-the-line. *Gazes at his HTC Hero. Sighs*
It runs Android 2.1 with the newer version of MOTOBLUR that has the resizeable widgets. Oh, and that’s a 2.8″ QVGA screen you can see there.
No news on dates or prices, but the source said the pricing will be “attractive”. We’ll let you know more as information surfaces
