T-Mobile doesn't get to have all the fun with the
CLIQ -- we know with some certainty that the
Sholes is destined to bring Motorola's Android push to Verizon, and if CEO Sanjay Jha has anything to say about it, the fun doesn't stop there. Speaking at an analyst conference, Jha mentioned yesterday that his company is "in talks with all large operators in the US," meaning that Cellular South and Cincinnati Bell are probably out of luck in the short term -- but AT&T and Sprint are likely getting the full-court press to sign up for a MOTOBLUR-powered phone or two as we speak. The US (and really, the entire world) is still fairly Android-starved with only a small handful of big-name models actually circulating in retail, so another manufacturer actively trying to get carriers on board isn't going to hurt -- and considering Moto's impetus to turn big profits on the double, we bet these guys are putting on some slick, convincing, promise-filled presentations in the boardrooms.

I really hope this brings Motorola back from the brink but...I like the Hero better
The Cliq looks great...I hope a variation of it geared toward business users comes to AT&T!
Welcome all the carriers to Android, the more the Merrier! I know once everyone tries Android regardless of the phone, they're going to LOVE it! It's such a terrific OS and it's only getting better. So just wait for a phone that you like has it hopefully in the future Tegra powered processor phones! ; D
It should be on all the carriers.
me want android on att please :*(
Android is a great os but more carriers need android phones. Once customers get to actually play around with one in the store they will be sold on android IMHO. I really hope Motorola does very well with their new handsets. The Cliq really looks great and the Scholes should be awsome. I would really hate to see Moto go down for the count. As soon as the Cliq is in stores Iam gonna go check it out. I prefer a physical keyboard and the G1 doesn't light my fire. Might be time to retire my bberry.
Why not just sell it unlocked? This focus on trying to go in bed with carriers is getting tiresome.
They can sell way more if offered by a carrier or two.
Estimated release date for the cliq?
Motorola CLIQ will be in the market around 22 October 2009 with free mobile phone (contract) or USD 400 (without contract) and will be unlock. I has Motorola A3100 and HTC Touch HD; I comparison between that 2 devices with same OS Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional and same features but Motorola A3100 to be the winner because the touchscreen is more responsive than HTC Touch HD and also many time HTC Touch HD has problem overheat in the whole body.
I believe Motorola CLIQ will defeat HTC G1 and HTC Hero.
