Android Smartphone Market Heating Up: Motorola Shows Off Droid X

“Motorola has shown off its latest Android based smartphone – the CDMA enabled Droid X, which offers a 1GHz processor; 4.3-inch screen; 8-megapixel camera; 3G Mobile HotSpot capabilities and will be Flash Player 10.1 ready. The handset is being released initially on the Verizon Wireless network in the USA.

“Nine months ago, we made a commitment to our customers to bring the openness of Android to the Verizon Wireless network,” said John Stratton, executive vice president and chief marketing officer for Verizon Wireless. “Since then, we have introduced the top-selling Android phone in the marketplace today – the DROID by Motorola. DROID X takes that commitment to another level with exclusive content, faster processing speeds, and, of course, the reliability of our network.”

DROID X customers will also receive Android 2.2 and Adobe Flash Player 10.1 with an over-the-air update in the latter half of the summer.

Pricing and Availability

The smartphone will be available from Verizon Wireless beginning July 15th for $199.99 after a $100 mail-in rebate with a new two-year customer agreement.

Customers can add the optional 3G Mobile Hotspot service to their DROID X for $20 per month. The 3G Mobile Hotspot allows customers to turn the phone into a wireless modem for up to five compatible Wi-Fi devices.”
