According to various sources (see below), next week should be noticed by something other than Windows Mobile 6.5 launch. We just may see the coolest Android phone yet – Motorola Tao (aka Sholes, aka Droid). Verizon could help Motorola to get back on track, and we feel that this device is exactly what they need – the most powerful Android device on the market.

Check out the specs:

• OMAP3430 – 600 MHz ARM Cortex A8 + PowerVR SGX 530 GPU + 430MHz C64x+ DSP + ISP (Image Signal Processor)
• Dimensions 60 x 115 x 13.7 mm and Weight 169 g
• Battery Li-ion 1400 mAh, Standby 450 hours, talk time 420 minutes
• 3.7-inch touch-sensitive display with a resolution of 854×480 pixels, 16 million color depth. Physical screen size is 45.7 mm by 81.3 mm.
• 512MB/256MB ROM/RAM
• microSD / microSDHC expansion slot
• Camera: 5.0 megapixel with autofocus and video recorder packing dual LED flash
• Connectivity: USB2.0, 3.5mm audio jack, Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR, Wi-Fi
• Operating System: Android 2.0 (1.6 likely?)
• Package Contents: Phone , battery, charger, USB cable, 8GB / 16GB MicroSD memory card and other literature

Besides being the greatest Android phone yet, it could also be the thinnest qwerty phone on the market. There are also rumors that the device will be available in keyboard-less form sometime in 2010.
