Fresh out of the rumor mill is some intriguing information about a hinted-at device coming from Motorola. Having recently released the source code for the CLIQ, Motorola buried references in the code to devices like the Morrison (CLIQ), Motus, and Zeppelin. Apparently, “La Jolla” also pops up and may offer the following specifications:

• Qualcomm 7201A Processor (528 MHz ARM11)
• MAX7359 keypad
• Kionix 3-axis accelerometer driver for LaJolla board
• Motorola Halo i2c touchscreen with 240 x 400 resolution

Motorola has been hinting at an inexpensive entry-level device and now the new SDK supports 240 x 400 resolution, matching the alleged “La Jolla” perfectly. Perhaps we are jumping to conclusions, but it would be a good thing to have another Motorola Android device, especially if it’s easy on the wallet!

The Motorola CLIQ is now available on the T-Mobile network in the U.S. It’s nice to see that T-Mobile is offering the consumer some choices in how they pick up the new Android-powered CLIQ. If you sign up with T-Mobile for the CLIQ, you can agree to a two-year contract for a lower price or select one of the new Even More Plus plans for a contract-free line of service.

What can you expect to pay for a contract vs. no contract? Your wallet will be $199.99 lighter for a CLIQ under a two-year contract and $399.99 if you opt for no contract. Either way, the CLIQ is yet another Android handset to choose from and it’s nice to see Android market share begin to really take hold. Let us know if you decide to pick up a CLIQ and what you think of the device.

November 2nd is THE day – the Motorola CLIQ will launch on T-Mobile for an unexpected price of $199.99. The price is unexpected because it seems a wee bit high when you consider it’s competing with the likes of the Palm Pre and the venerable iPhone. Nevertheless, for $199.99 you can grab this Android-powered handset and start getting your ‘droid groove going. Beginning October 19th you can pre-order the CLIQ. What do you think of the price tag?

The Motorola CLIQ will be the first in what we hope is a long and fruitful relationship with Google’s Android OS, and it really looks like Motorola is getting off on the right foot by including some excellent pre-loaded apps. The first-time user experience with the CLIQ will be enhanced with apps like the following:

• Telenav
• Yahoo Mail
• Digg
• Rotten Tomatoes
• Mint
• Accuweather
• Facebook, MySpace and Twitter, oh my!
• USA Today Money
• The whole host of Google services
• and more!

This is great news to have so much to look forward to, already pre-installed on the Motorola CLIQ right out of the box. Of course, if you want to rid yourself of some of the bloat, then I’m sure you can get busy deleting. However, for the first time Android user and even the seasoned veteran, it’s nice to have a device with so much functionality from the moment you turn it on.

Motorola’s first Android-based phone, the Cliq, is rumored to be available for pre-order from T-Mobile on October 19th. Pricing is still unknown for this slider device, but will likely be in the sub-$200 range to compete with the likes of the iPhone ($199, maybe?)

TmoNews has posted leaked pictures of printed material indicating a pre-order date of 10/19, so the rumor is gaining substance. Anyone planning on pre-ordering the Cliq?

Global Equities Research analyst Trip Chowdhry released this morning that Motorola plans to release ten (10!) Android-based handsets in the next 6 – 10 months, starting with the Cliq. Prices will range from $39 to $399 with carrier subsidy.

Wow. When Motorola said they were going all-in to make Android phones, they weren’t kidding. This Android handset blitz should really help Motorola recapture some of that market share they used to hold when popular phones like the RAZR were all the rage. No further details are known at this time, but when more information is available about which handsets are going to which carriers, we’ll be sure to report it!
