Motorola Planning 2GHz Android Phone For Later This Year

rocket97 writes "On Wednesday, at the Executives Club of Chicago, Motorola CEO Sanjay Jha reportedly decided to chat about the relatively near future of the mobile landscape as he sees it — which, in part, includes the ultimate demise of mobile computers in favor of highly-capable smartphones. This being his vision, Jha discussed Motorola's plans for a smartphone with a 2GHz processor — by the end of this year. While Jha did not want to divulge any further information, Conceivably Tech cites another anonymous Motorola executive who was a little more chatty, talking up a device intended to 'incorporate everything that is technologically possible in a smartphone today.'"

    How many people even -make- phone calls anymore though? Really, the reason I've talked on the phone this past year is talking to my older relatives who haven't figured out how to text or when either I or the person I'm talking to is driving. For every other time, I've either used text messaging, IM, E-mail, Twitter or Facebook.

    Really, the main reason why most people even have phones anymore is for text messaging and data. Phone calls have gone the way of letter writing, obsolete.
