Motorola Shules / Sholes Launching With Android Eclair, GSM Shules Headed to AT&T / T-Mobile, Flash Still on the Way
- The Shules will launch with Eclair — Donut is so H1 2009, and Motorola’s upcoming Android slider will reportedly drop with Eclair on board. It may even be the “flagship” Eclair handset intended to showcase all of the new features Android will have obtained with Eclair’s release.
- The Shules will be a gaming beast — The handset is optimized for ARMv7 architecture and will be able to gobble up 3D graphics and games like none other. Supposedly.
- There is a GSM version of the Shules in the works — While Verizon will get the CDMA version of the Motorola Shules this year as an exclusive, there is already a GSM version in the pipeline and it should land on AT&T, or T-Mobile, some time in 2010.
- The Flash is still on track — One of the many handsets we scooped last year, the Flash, is still said to be making its way to Verizon and it should launch in early 2010. This further supports what we speculated earlier month.
Interesting, isn't it? You may remember the Flash below and it looks like it will launch in 2010. The Sholes / Shules launching on AT&T and T-Mobile is definitely a positive thing - the more carriers, the merrier. Just in case you didn't know, "Eclair" is a version of Android, similar to Cupcake and Donut. We could see multitouch on this handset, since we've heard reports of Android having multitouch support somewhere down the line. I know everyone's curious about Motorola's Blur UI though and that's what I'm waiting for.

Gateway Planning to Release Five Notebooks in the Future
The first model Gateway will introduce is called the Summer Breeze Collection. These notebooks will have: an 11.6-inch HD display, WiFi, an integrated webcam, and Dolby Headphone technology.
This year we should be expecting Gateway's Autumn Shade Collection ID Series. These notebooks will have a 15.6-inch LED-backlit widescreen display.
Later this year, we should also be expecting the Winter Snow Collection NV Series. These notebooks will have: a silver trim, rounded edges, capacitive touch launch keys, Dolby Sound Room technology, and multimedia content playback. Clearly, they announced no specs in this line-up, which sucks.
Next year, we should be expecting the Spring Butterfly Collection EC Series. These notebooks will reportedly have: a thin and lightweight design, power-saving settings, data back-up, a touchpad lock, and battery long enough to last 8-hours.
Gateway is also planning to release the P Series FX, which would be targetting gamers and video / graphic designers. These notebooks should have up to a 1TB HDD.
Right now, any other information is unknown, so that definitely sucks.

Besides the touchscreen aspect, these two models are exactly the same. They both have the "same patented dual-hinge, which allows them to not only be positioned in portrait or landscape orientation, but folded flat for transport." Pretty impressive, eh? These displays plug via USB port and are compatible with both PCs and Macs. You can now pre-order the MIMO 710-S display here for $149.99 USD, but the 720-S isn't available yet.
