Motorola annouces the GPS enabled MING A1600, A1800
The MING A1600 phone has been circulating in rumors previously, and a little over a month ago, it was approved by the FCC. Also, Motorola has announced the MING A1800, which is set to accompany the A1600. The A1800 is pretty much the same as the A1600, however the main difference is that it comes with a one key difference - it can connect to both GSM and CDMA networks simultaneously.
To recap, the Motorola MING A1600 comes with a 2.4-inch TFT touchscreen display, comes with a stylus, runs on Linux, has quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support, a 3-megapixel camera with auto focus, Bluetooth, microSD expansion up to 4GB, microUSB connectivity, an integrated FM radio and of course one of the more notable features, integrated GPS.
As previously mentioned, the MING A1800 offers the same features as the A1600, and also allows for GSM and CDMA to be used at the same time. No word on exact pricing or availability, but the A1800 shouldn’t cost too much more than the A1600, and both of these phones are set to first hit the Chinese market.

Motorola handset lineup for 2008 leaked, doesn’t impress
You may have heard that Motorola is quietly readying a few new handsets for a comeback in the mobile handset making game, like the 5-megapixel packing Motorola ZN5 Zine and the Motoming A1600 smartphone. While both of these handsets aren’t exactly packing high-end tech behind their casings, we were still hoping that Motorola would roll out a few more handsets including one that would be worthy of being called its flagship. Well, our wait ends today as detailed specs and information are revealed about Moto’s upcoming phones for 2008. And they’re not all bad, but considering the things that other handset makers have been releasing quite recently, it seems that Moto is really lagging behind the rest of the group, only readying a few, so-so mobile handsets and their flagship model has turned out to be that 5-MP Linux-based smartphone after all. Something that Nokia, SE, Samsung, and even Apple have been able to equal and even surpass in terms of functionality last year, if not a couple of years ago.
