motorola attila alexander

According to short but sweet article in Digitimes, Taiwanese hardware manufacturer Compal has received an order from Motorola for two Windows Mobile smartphones, codenamed the Alexander and Attila. We saw some spy shots of the Attila earlier this week but news on the status of the qwerty keyboard packing Alexander has been sorely lacking until now. The article reveals that the two PDA phones are slated for release in Q1 2009 instead of the originally anticipated Q4 2008. Does the news of a potential release stoke the fire of anticipation for these new Motorola handsets or does it leave you wishing it would just let them die and focus on getting its Android-based social networking handset out the door instead?

    I’m probably in the minority who think this but… I truly believe Motorola can make a huge comeback. Their phone designs have always been(and continue to be) quite good. It’s their unintuitive and laggy software that has been their Achilles heal. Android will correct this problem and go a long way toward reparing Motorola’s image.

    Why don’t they try to shove Android on these models? Otherwise they’re just another fairly boring WM smartphone and will be treated as such by the marketplace.
