Verizon seems to be on a roll these
days when it comes to Android smartphones. Yesterday, we saw the
launch of both the Droid
Pro (with a built-in QWERTY keyboard) and the Continuum
(with a "secondary" display). Today, Verizon is ushering
out another offering from Motorola: the Droid
2 Global.
The Droid 2 Global improves upon the
standard Droid 2 by incorporated a 1.2GHz processor, quad-band GSM,
and tri-band UMTS. As result, the Droid 2 Global lives up to its
namesake as it can practically be used anywhere in the world.
Other features include a 3.7"
display (854x480), 5mp camera with dual-LED flash, and 16GB of
storage (8GB from internal storage, 8GB via an included microSD
card).
The smartphone will be available in
Winter White and Dark Sapphire, and retails for $199 after a $100
mail-in rebate.
In other news, Samsung is reporting
that it has shipped
over 3 million Galaxy S smartphones. "We're in a situation
where we wish we had more supply," said Samsung CMO Paul Golden
to Reuters.
