SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 11 (UPI) -- U.S. technology giant
Motorola said its first Android-based mobile phone, the CLIQ, would
be available exclusively from T-Mobile sometime this fall.
The phone features MOTOBLUR, a program that manages and
synchronizes social Web sites such as Facebook, MySpace and Twitter
with emails and phone messages, "so there is no need to open and
close different mobile applications to keep up with the latest
content," Motorola said in a release.
The phone features a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, a 3.1-inch
touch-screen display, a 5 megapixel auto focus camera and a music
player with pre-loaded Amazon MP3 store application.
Motorola is touting the MOTOBLUR function that
"automatically syncs conversations, contacts and content, and
delivers a solution that's instinctive, social and smart," said
Chief Executive Officer of Motorola Mobile Devices Sanjay Jha.
Motorola did not specify a launch date, but said, "CLIQ with
MOTOBLUR will be available exclusively to T-Mobile customers later
this fall in two colors -- Titanium and Winter White."
