I just wrote about the Cliq recently. What Mototola is banking on this smart phone, the one feature that makes it different fromother mobile, is the Motoblur feature. It works like the Palm Pre’s Synergy feature.
ya dude u are right on this.. motorola is banking on its motoblur (android based) skin!!
Can you expound on Motoblur?
Android phones are popping up everywhere. This looks good for Google!
Motorola has introduced the Motoblur.Its basically a skin that is built around social networking.It features live widgets that integrate Twitter, Facebook, Gmail, MySpace, Yahoo, and more.Motoblur also aggregates all your contacts into a single address book, but it shows you recent status updates along with photos when contacts call you.
and ya it surely is good for Google (as it always is !!)
wow! very interesting phone! I wonder how much the SRP of that beauty would be here in the Philippines?
As for now, Im gonna join the axe on phone contest… imo, easiest way and cheapest way to reach an iPhone 3g here in the Philippines at a cheap price
