With the Motorola Charm’s release announced, all eyes are now on the next Motorola device. With that in mind, Motorola’s new Android-based phone has been spotted again. This time, based on the picture we came to know that AT&T will be releasing this phone.
Going under the model name Chindi, this MotoBlur smartphone will soon be launched with AT&T soon. Back in June, Motorola announced that they will be soon releasing a phone that looks similar to the one in the picture and the phone would be named FlipOut. Based on the picture as well, it is safe to say the phone carries a 3-megapixel camera.

With this device, experts are predicting Android 2.1 will be its operating system. It will also have seven customizable home screens and live wallpapers. It will have Flash lite support for the Web browser. Stay tuned for more official details.

Canon has been in the news recently. After having won awards for outstanding performance, the digital imaging brand is back in the news and this time it concerns none other than the rumored PowerShot G12. The latter has been a rumor for a while now and we’ve just had a picture leak of the upcoming camera.
Based on the leaked picture, several assumptions have already been made regarding the device. The PowerShot G12 now has a smaller body which explains the disappearance of the viewfinder. The online community has since been trying to analyze the picture and turns out; a lot of other rumored features are also missing from the camera.
The Canon PowerShot G12 definitely doesn’t have an optical viewfinder. Many are speculating that this might be due to the fact that Canon wants a smaller design for the PowerShot G12. This might also be the cause of the other features’ disappearance. It still has the pop-up flash though. Let’s just hope that Canon made the announcement soon together with the most awaited EOS 60D.
