Motorola and Verizon Wireless have today officially introduced the Droid 2 smartphone and said it go on pre-sale tomorrow (and ship on August 12) priced at $199.99 after a $100 mail-in rebate with a new two-year contract.
Pictured below, Droid 2 runs Android 2.2 (spiced up with the Blur UI) and has a slide-out keyboard, a 3.7-inch (854 x 480) multi-touch display, a 5 megapixel camera, 8GB of built-in memory (backed by an 8GB microSDHC card), Flash Player 10.1, 3G mobile hotSpot capabilities, and DLNA connectivity.
"With the new Droid 2, we've taken a big leap forward from the original Droid," said Bill Ogle, chief marketing officer of Motorola Mobile Devices and Home Business. "We listened to consumers and are providing an even more robust experience built on Android 2.2 that includes a new keyboard, increased processing power, Adobe Flash Player 10.1 and 3G Mobile HotSpot capabilities to send, access and share information even quicker than before."
A limited-edition R2-D2 version of the Droid 2 has also been confirmed and it will be available only online in September.
