Motorola MPx200 Photos

There are two photos showing AT&amp;T- and Orange-branded versions of the device. There are also two photos of an unbranded version. <br /><br />Here's the most interesting part: one of the unbranded photos clearly shows the MPx200 running Smartphone 2003. <br /> <br />While we can't tell if this is the result of some mistaken Photoshop magic or if this is a sign that Motorola is already working on a Smartphone 2003 update, this is a big day so let's be optimistic. 8)

Great news, now someone can get to work on figuring out how to unlock these... :lol:

What kind of CPU are we talking about here? XScale?

The screens are certainly simulated.

The first one on the left has a screen grab that has been photoshopped in, as you can tell by the zoom-in photo. The corners are perfectly rounded and cropped off on the corners. We'd see every pixel, and even subpixels, the this screen was from a photograph with this kind of detail.

The second one is VERY simulated, as there is no pixelation in the fonts and icons when you click it for the zoomed-in image. But one day, with our infinite DPI displays, it will look like this :)

99.999% of all product photos have their screens added after the fact - it's just not possible to capture the reality of how a screen looks in person with a camera (well, possible, but very difficult). There's nothing unusual about this.

I was just answering Robert's question.

Also, I have seen rumors that Nextel and Motorola may be working on a Smartphone.
