[Video] Motorola Devour Goes Viral on YouTube

February 20, 2010 by 1 Comment

Verizon is getting the Devour, which we already know. We know it is going to be hitting the shelves this March. We know that it will be running Android 1.6. We know that it will come package with MotoBlur. But Motorola’s Rick Osterloh, whom guides us through the video demo, mentions the Qualcomm CPU inside (same as Pixi). The MSM7627 Qualcomm chip is  a low-cost offering for the smart phone market. The phone also comes with Google Maps Navigation  and a Moto Phone Portal, which is pretty decent little software.

This will be one of almost 20 new smart phones to hit Verizon this year alone.

Social networking, music, and youtube are attractive features to an average user. But to a business it may in fact not only be unneeded, but unwanted, as it may bring distractions from work.
