[h2]Motorola Droid 3 to feature OMAP4, Motorola Targa to be first phone with quad-core NVIDIA Kal-El?[/h2]

New information has surfaced on a trio of upcoming Motorola phones headed to Verizon. We already knew that Verizon was launching the dual-core Droid Bionic later in Q2, but they also have a growing lineup of multi-core devices including the Droid X2, Droid 3 and Droid Targa. Read on after the jump for the latest rumors and speculation.
[h2]Motorola Droid X2[/h2]
The Droid X2 is a refresh of the original Droid X, but this time Motorola went with a dual-core CPU. Rumored specs include a 1 GHz Tegra 2, 4.3 inch qHD display, 512 MB RAM, rear and front-facing cameras, and all the other bells and whistles of the original. Unlike the Droid Bionic which operates on Verizon’s 4G LTE network, the Droid X2 will only support Verizon 3G.
Look for this device to debut around early Q3 for $149-199 with a 2-year contract.
[h2]Motorola Droid 3[/h2]
The keyboard-packing Droid is back again for its yearly update. Lately Motorola has been giving NVIDIA’s Tegra 2 a lot of love, but we hear the Droid 3 will still use a Texas Instruments chip like the first two versions. Rumored specs for the Droid 3 include a dual-core 1 GHz OMAP4430 CPU, 4 inch qHD display, rear and front facing cameras, and a five-row QWERTY keyboard. It is also said to be a global device and feature a SIM card slot for GSM networks.
We have yet to learn if the Droid 3 will support 4G LTE or be limited to 3G only. I expect the Droid 3 will appear on Verizon in early Q3.
[h2]Motorola Droid Targa[/h2]
The most interesting Verizon device to leak out is the new Motorola Targa. This smartphone just appeared on Howard Forums and little is known about it other than a rumored Christmas release date.
Motorola launched the first dual-core phone in the US with the Atrix 4G, so there is a chance that the Targa could become the first quad-core phone. NVIDIA recently demoed their quad-core Project Kal-El and said we should expect smartphones with the chip by Christmas. Motorola has a good relationship with NVIDIA, so I think they should be in the running to get the first smartphone with Kal-El.
Verizon already has the most impressive lineup of upcoming Android device in the next six months and it looks like they will continue to lead throughout the remainder of 2011.
How would you grade the rumored upgrades to Verizon’s Droid family?

The Thunderbolt is sex in phone form. I skeptical as am with all phones especially Verizon phones but that #!% is awesome.
I speedtested the connection on one at a store and speed was 15.82 up 35.85 down.
How the !$#$ is that possible with a phone? My Time Warner at home doesn't do that.

Yea, that is pretty insane. I saw a diagram comparing the nvidia quad-core rivaling a intel core2duo
Android(2.2 or 2.3) doesn't even have support for multiple processors (Only 3.0 does) so imagine when it does we will be having phones controlling a whole network infrastructure or just checking facebook faster
2 out 3 of those motorola phones will be able do the same thing the Atrix does connect it to moto laptop to browse like your on a actual laptop.

Is 4inch screens going to be standard now for all androids? I don't like bricks in my pocket and love the size on my incredible. And the thunderbolt looks dope but ill hold off on it since my incredible still works well. Ill wait until next year since androids get outdated mad quick. And that xoom is copped once I get my taxes back. I was going to get the ipad but only because it was cheaper. But the wifi comes out to the same price because I wanted 32gig anyway. And the xoom is superior to ipad

Nope, most of us buy our apps.
Kinda of regret stealing apps, but its not worth it no more when they only work for a limited time.
If Like Android you should also support the devs who create the apps, without them there will be no apps. If you keep stealing them, they will stop updating and stop making apps.
