I saw this on Engadget… they mentioned that it might not be Android because Motorola is not involved… My response to that is that they will probably announce a few android phones from different manucatures… at least 2 of them the HTC Desire and the Motorola Sholes..

It’s definitely android…that’s the point of the announcement. I’m confused by your comment?

Hmm, looks like they’re bringing out the big guns.
This should be good…

Something about unicorns and cotton candy for everyone. Oh, and that VZW’s going to support Google Voice and two Androids are imminent (in about two weeks) on VZW.

Jack you can still listen to it. Click the link posted above.

So Rob..no announcement of the Sholes eh? Interesting. Wouldn’t a marketing campaign of SOME kind be beneficial here? Rather than just quietly launching the phone in a couple weeks?
