Rumor: Motorola TouchZine HD Google Android Phone
Photos of the rumored Motorola handset which is said to be called the Motorola TouchZine HD has hit the interwebs, everything about the photo screams huge screen and nothing but touchy feely play would get this device running. The best information this rumor has to offer is that the Motorola TouchZine HD is a Google Android handset, Android making waves on a handset like this could really tip the balance a lil bit in favor of Google, more so for Motorola of course.
Rumored specs are said to be a 5 megapixel autofocus camera, NVIDIA Tegra chip, 16GB of internal storage, HDMI Port, and 1080p HD video playback. OK, so looking at the specs right now puts allot of doubt on my mind about the whether or not this Motorola handset is real, there is no way a small device such as this will be able to play 1080p HD videos, I'm calling this a fake, what say you?
