Motorola Incorporated recently announced that they would launch their initial phone based on Google’s Android operating system by the coming year (2009).

However, the company is not doing so well at present, since it has lately been confronting several financial matters, which have arisen from both the US financial crisis and some internal organizational troubles.

The company’s quarterly report disclosed that the sales in their wireless division had descended by 31%, reaching revenue of only $3.1 billion.

US-based cell phone manufacturer Motorola has made announcement about the availability of its GPS-enabled MOTOMING A 1600 phone in the Indian market.

Packing a host of multimedia features, the newly launched handset offers navigational services and comes preloaded with landmarks of 30 cities.

The new model MOTOMING A 1600 features a transparent flip cover, 1 GB MicroSD card, an expandable memory capacity of up to 4 GB plus a 3.2 mega pixel camera.

The new phone also comes packed with some features of MapmyIndia.

Bad news for all those who had been eagerly waiting to get their hands on the first Motorola Android-based phone, as its launch has been delayed. Reportedly, US markets would be deprived of Motorola’s Android-based phone at least till the second quarter of 2009. Europe’s wait will even continue for longer as there it will arrive in the Q3 of the next year. However, in a move to compensate, Motorola is going for a novelty twofer.
