    Motorola's First Android Phone Calgary Looks Impressive Enough That I Actually Care

    I've been tired of "Android on X's phone" stories for a while now, but Motorola's Calgary shot my eyes wide open: It actually looks interesting! And it's on Verizon.

    BGR says the QWERTY slider will focus on social networking—presumably in the same vein as the new Sidekick. I have a bit of doubt about that flat not-so-touch-type-y keyboard, but still, color me impressed: Futuretastic-looking hardware running Android on Verizon? As long as they don't lock it the hell down, could be sweet, and not just for Moto, who needs a hit phone, or Verizon, who just needs better phones. [BGR]
