Motorola Droid makes an early appearance on the Motorola website

It looks like the Motorola Droid, which is the Android phone that is expected to be announced by Verizon on October 28 has been unveiled a little earlier than expected.  And unveiled by way of the official Motorola website.  Of course, that fact that it came from Motorola.com just means we can trust that the leaked images and specs are the real deal.

According to the website, the Motorola Droid will be running the yet to be released Android 2.0, which is also known as Eclair.  In terms of features, here is what we can expect;

  • 3.7-inch display with a 480 x 854 resolution
  • 550MHz processor
  • Wi-Fi, 3G, GPS, Bluetooth
  • A microSD card slot that will come pre-filled with a 16GB microSD card
  • 5-megapixel camera with auto-focus, 4x zoom and a dual-led flash
  • 3.5mm headphone jack
  • 1400 mAh battery
  • Measure in at 2.4 x 4.6 x .5 inches
  • A weight of 6 ounces
  • And a browser that will offer HTML 5 support out-of-the-box with Flash 10 support coming in 2010

Of course, as you would expect, this page has already been removed, which means it looks like we are back to waiting until October 28 for another official look.  In the meantime, hit the gallery below for a few images of the Droid handset.

  • There will be many phones with the Android OS and the Droid will have way more Apps in it’s 1st year then the IPhone had in it’s first year. The Android OS will cruise past Apple in the # of apps for this phone compared to the IPhone.
