I saw the Cliq this morning but we just got a chance to really play around with Motorola’s Android-based, social-networking-focused smartphone, and we have to say, we’re pretty impressed, it looks sleek and some apps come with it already that i had to download for my G1. the MOTO BLUR seems convenient if you use myspace, facebook or twitter a lot. The MOTOBLUR works for e-mails as well as socialization, where i don’t have to open and close applications to get to e-mails then i see it as a plus over the G1. But what would make me run out and get this phone besides its sleek looks and 5 mp camera, is that if this phone is not buggy, and slow as the G1. share your view with me at http://www.Motorola-Cliq.com Take care!

@equisxx23,

Regarding your comment on the battery drainage from getting updates from MySpace, Twitter, Facebook:

That’s not how the Motorola Cliq works. Remember this is not a normal phone, it has PUSH integration with MotoBlur.

Read this review to understand it:

http://tech.yahoo.com/blogs/patterson/57143

The key sentence is:
“Moto reps assure me that the MotoBlur service will ‘intelligently’ push data down to the Cliq in chunks, when it’s most appropriate, rather than frantically pinging the server for updates.”

Someone handled it and saw it connected with UMA :

Also the Motorola site now shows the apps integrated with features:

Note under Connectivity: “MOTOROLA MEDIA LINK”, which is new software that Motorola had the German company Nero write for them:

Silly fanboys (Kershon). Unless you’re looking to switch to T-Mobile and don’t want to wait any longer…save your money and wait for a GSM version of the Sholes to come to them. It’s better in every way you can possibly compare it with the Cliq.

Sorry to hurt everyone’s feelings. I understand this is a T-Mobile site, duh. I’m told its not the sholes, but a 3.7 inch non qwerty android beast. This site is very heavy on Android, duh. The cliq is a good phone. I liked it in hand, although its build quality was a bit off, slider would move a bit while closed. Software wise, I didnt see any of the mentioned apps. The same thing happened with the MyTouch when Facebook was shown. I figured I would let some news out, but oh well. And btw for the Cliq, T-Mobile ordered 400,000 units at first and then upped it to a total of 800,000 units. Please no flaming for letting info to the masses. Next time i will hold it to my self :)

P.S. Verizon ordered 2,000,000 units of their first android handset. :), I’m sure people will be mad when a new android device is shown that is not T-Mobile, sorry ahead of time. But this all depends if my friend allows me to take pics, doesnt want to get in trouble of course. I’ve previously sent pics to other sites for upcoming Motorola phones.

Knight rush alias VZ fanboy. I don’t care if the sholes comes with a solid gold case Verizon can shove it where the sun don’t shine. Great news?? This is a T-Mobile site. Duh and duh. T-Mo and CLIQ FTW!

I played with this phone yesterday, not all that impressed. I have a friend who is an engineer with Motorola in their Illinois headquarters. But truth be told, this is the fastest android phone to date. Almost no lag :) . He wouldn’t let me take pictures. But to use this phone, one must open up a MotoBlur account, weird. I have great news though. According to my friend, Verizon (No Good)will be receiving a 3.7 inch capacitive, Google experience phone maybe later this year. I will be seeing it Wednesday. Hope to have pictures for it. :)
