Leaked Verizon catalog highlights Droid 2
The carrier's summer devices does nothing to hide the fact that yet another Droid is coming to Verizon.
Thanks to a leaked summer device catalog, we can confirm some of the rumored specs for the Droid 2 from Motorola and Verizon.
Listed as "coming soon," the Droid 2 is found to be sitting front and center on the inside of the catalog, next to the Droid X. Looking through the pages, we can see that the handset has an 8GB memory card preloaded and comes with a 1GHz processor and 5-megapixel camera. Other features include 512MB RAM, a more spacious slideout QWERTY keyboard, and 3G Mobile Hotspot capability.
It appears this Droid 2 will fall neatly in the middle between the original Droid and the Droid X. While it's a considerable step up from last year's runaway hit, it won't have the HD video recording capability or camera resolution of its sibling. One thing is for certain, it's getting harder and harder to figure out which Droid is right for you. Or, with all the choice, maybe it's getting easier. Look for the Droid 2 some time in August.
