The Motorola US Website uploaded the DROID 2 Global info on the site before the official announcement. The page was removed almost instantly but most of the information has already escaped in the wild.

The successor of the Verizon DROID 2 is a dual mode CDMA/GSM device with slightly improved specs. It will pack the world first 1.2GHz mobile processor and will sport a redesigned QWERTY keyboard.

It seems Verizon latest DROID is going global. Do not get this wrong, DROID 2 Global is still a Verizon only device, its just capable of working on GSM networks too.

The revealed specs so far include a 1.2GHz processor, quad-band GSM support, a 5 megapixel camera with dual-LED flash , 8GB internal memory, all-round connectivity with mobile hotspot capabilities, redesigned thinner slide-out QWERTY keyboard and improved touchscreen technology and they got our curiosity at improved touchscreen technology.

In the first it was the T-Mobile myTouch 3G, then came the myTouch 3G Slide and now you can welcome the myTouch. It features Froyo, multiple connectivity options and a large touchscreen plus under its hood there is a a Snapdragon. Meantime, the Motorola DEFY showed up on the T-Mobile USA website listed on coming soon section

The T-Mobile myTouchHD is quite reminiscent of the myTouch 3G Slide but one thing is missing a full QWERTY keyboard. You get a larger 3.8-inch touchscreen, instead of the 3.4-inch one on the myTouch 3G Slide.

The T-Mobile myTouch runs Android 2.2 Froyo and has a secondary camera for video calls plus support for HSPA+ up to 14.4 Mbps and 802.11/n Wi-Fi.

The Device May Not Stay very long in Stocks and it may be sold-out Already!!

Simply releasing a Motorola Droid 2 with internals capable of global roaming probably would not have done much to differentiate the world device from the D2 currently on Verizons shelves, so good thing Big Red decided to give the phone a cosmetic makeover. This is our first look at what will be the Droid 2 World Edition with its white casing and silver screen bezel as opposed to the blue and gunmetal of the first Droid 2. Rumor has it this one might replace the first iteration of the Droid 2 outright in VZW lineup.

Other than the new colors and roaming capabilities, looks like we will be getting the same exact phone. We more or less expected that, though some were holding out hope for some tweaks in the hardware here and there.

 

 

Now you can Upgrade the CPU in your Motorola Milestone XT720 to run at 720MHz with a the New firmware update.

Motorola lists the CPU speed for the XT720 as up to 720MHz and it turns out that the Cortex A8 processor inside the Motorola Milestone XT720 has been ticking at the modest 550MHz up until today.

The new software update, which is available for the UK and Germany, overclocks it to those promised 720MHz (the maximum frequency of its chip is 800MHz). The update also adds DLNA support for good measure.
