Motorola's other Android phone for Verizon ain't no Droid, but it's gonna be cheaper (targeted at fickle teenagers) and run Motorola's Blur interface from the Cliq. It's also a QWERTY slider, with a 3MP camera and oh yes, Wi-Fi. [BGR]

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]

BGR scored what appear to be renders of Motorola's 2009 product lineup. And it's looking...decent.

There are almost no details on these pictures for the time being, but BGR does promise that they are all destined for Verizon Wireless in 2009. Pictured above, we have the codenamed Flash—what looks to be Motorola's thick response to the iPhone with some sharp HTC Diamond edging.

And here we have the Calgary, mixing RAZR buttons with a sliding touchscreen. There are more photos over at BGR, so hit them up to see what else Motorola's got in the works. [BGR]
