Read up a few posts from yers CK

I should have known better : )

Shadez has some quick hands!!

I was bummed with the new rumor. I'll keep my og droid until next year. Where is the promised 2ghz phone?

Hopefully the A957 sports it......

it's a wait and see right now.

Well Sanjay Jha’s said that we will see a 2 GHZ Motorola Phone by the end of the year, which I believe.. so we are missing a phone somewhere..

Jha's proclamation has been the reed of hope i've been hanging onto that the Sick will be 2 ghz/dual core...

The leaked info from a while back is matching up with this...coincidence? I don't think so.

2 ghz is possible from Nvidia, its going to be a Tegra 2 chip!

Just to make sure everyone gets to devour the information contained in this news article

NVIDIA says Tegra 2 shipments still on track for Q3… to Motorola? – Android and Me

Hmmm... Where's bill or one of the other reliable sources we have here when you need them?

I'm not sold on a Tegra 2 yet:

Snapdragon vs. Hummingbird vs. OMAP - the mobile CPU war beyond 1GHz page2 (Phone Arena News)

Considering all design awards U8500 received from Nokia, it might end up powering its Symbian^4 devices, but has been tested on Android and Linux too. The dual-core Snapdragons are said to be very similar in features to the U8500, which is rated for 12 hours of full HD video playback on a single charge of a standard 1000mAh battery, so hopefully this would be achieved in the latest Snapdragon chipsets as well. An advantage of the platform is that it integrates the baseband modem as Qualcomm's solution does.

On a 1000 mAh battery? That would be amazing if that holds true.

The OMAP4 generation is where it gets really interesting, but we are yet to hear for a handset with these A9 chips to be announced. Cortex-A9 is a completely different animal, focusing on multiple core operation, dual-channel memory controller, efficient instruction handling up to the application level, and overall superior power management. OMAP4 should offer what dual-core Snapdragons do, plus even better battery life, universal hardware decoding for playing any media file you get to it, and TI's superior image processing and stabilization technologies.

On the next page in that article:

NVIDIA's upcoming Tegra 250 chipset relies heavily on the company's graphics calculations prowess, and is also a dual-core Cortex-A9 endeavor. NVIDIA claims ultra low-power requirements by including eight processors dedicated to different tasks, something that the other upcoming SoCs are doing as well. Buried in the Tegra's white papers, though, we found stats for 140 hours of audio on a standard 2000mAh battery, while the big boys are achieving 120 hours, but from a 1000mAh battery. Nevertheless, the current Tegra found its way into Microsoft's Zune player, and Tegra 250 has claimed intentions for the smartphone market as well, so our money would be on NVIDIA as the underdog, if they improve on the wireless connectivity front.

If that holds true too....I would probably steer clear of a Tegra 2 chip. Hopefully thats old news or pray the Tegra 2 graphics chip can be paired with an OMAP, Intel, Snapdragon, or Hummingbird. I notice alot of the new and upcoming Tablets are running Tegra 2's.

Dont ask me how in the world a dual core, even one at 45nm, can seem to have better battery life than a single core, 45nm chip. ...lol

If that battery life thing is true for the Tegra 2...I will take an OMAP 4 cpu with a Tegra 2 gpu, or an OMAP 4 and the PowerVR 540.

Thanks for the info but I'm sticking with my X. Just can't stop admiring the large screen and speed. I'm sure the Pro and 2GHz phones will be great devices though.

So, according to Engadget, this rumored 2 ghz superphone is actually just a Droid 2 with HSDPA. Major bummer if true. It will probably have that robot ejaculation known as blur also. If this turns out to be the case, HTC here I come.

 

[huskerkate]

No. as CK has pointed out, these blogs have been causing much confusion. The Pro was thought to be the 2ghz phone. But, it turns out the Pro is just the D2 world edition. The 2ghz phone is still potentially on the table; it just won't be known as the Pro.

ok, seems clearer.

But indeed we have many other problems right now.
There is a rumored 4" qwerty.
There is a rumored 4.3" droid x underpowered, low cost.
There is a rumored 4,3" droid x overpower (A957?)

I agree with CK , just stand by now.

 

[DF Smod]

And the plot thickens :icon_eek:

 

[JonKyu]

And the plot thickens :icon_eek:

So it turns out that the moto droid pro is actually the droid 2's foreign long lost twin that faked it's death trying to escape the clutches of it's lover the droid x which turns out to be the father of the droid 2? What madness is this? Dun dun dun! Lmao

OMAP4 ftw!

And I just realized that the picture in that site does look like a BB torch lmao.

Im going to hope that Motorola keeps their promise and releases a 2ghz phone by the end of this year...Motorola very well might be hiding this device and will continue to do so until a week or two before launch. I think we will still see a 2ghz phone by Motorola and Verizon soon . Possibly 4g too!

 

[wmnomore]

So i don't understand.
-We had all these rumors about the droid pro being this 4-4.3" end-all machine.
-then rumors of it just being the droid 2 world edition.

so now rumors are true. we are believing these new rumors?

help me understand the reasoning here.
thanks

 

[jaycemiskel]

There's way more sources behind the fact that it is just the world edition of the droid 2.
