After tones of rumors about Motorola’s upcoming lineup powered by Android OS,here is something concrete and worth a look. The Sholes appears to be a strong full touchscreen with a sliding QWERTY. Reports suggest that this would land sometime in October and support both CDMA and EVDO Rev A. Here are the rumored specs:

  • 3.7” Touch Screen (480 x 854)
  • 512MB ROM, 256MB RAM + Micro SDHC slot
  • 5MP Camera
  • GPS / Bluetooth / WiFi

Sholes is surely the best we have seen amongst the recently leaked Motorola phones. Hope it saves the day for Moto’s sinking ship.
