MOTO, which is not Motorola, has, "available now", a rather interesting device. Highlights:

OMAP 3430, 256MB RAM, 5" OLED, USB OTG, compass, 3 axis accelerometer, wifi g,b,n, 720p out via HDMI, preloaded with Linux 2.6.27 (they don't say which distro) or Android.

147x100x14mm.

No keyboard.

It is one of three devices, the other 2 are not available yet, but have different screen sizes (one at 3.5 the other at 10), different processors (all OMAP), and more RAM (up to a 1 Gig on the 10 inch).

Oh yes, 3G radio is an option.

What say you all?

Shooting from the hip here, but I'd go with this:

Smallest one has strange specs: 8 megapixel front facing camera and no camera at back.

The biggest one looks like one helluva tablet. 10", OMAP4, 1gig memory and 8000mAh battery.

Looks pretty for now, but i'm sure by 2011 it'll be smashed by competitors. That's if it launches then or even at all

EDIT: apparently it's a platform, not an end-user device. Of course, these will come too, but even later

Yes, seems as if it's platform, available now to developers who are trying to get things out by 2011, not available in 2011....was/is my understanding..

I said "highlights", not complete specs .No idea on the internal USB. It kind of reminds me of the Gumxstix based Flow (www.gizmoforyou.com) .I'm going to contact them and see what the story is.

Well, the interesting part to me is...capacitive multi-touch + pen digitizer. Of course, there is no word on when that one will be available, anyone know when the A9s ship?
