LG will launch 20 Android phones this year



LG Optimus GT540
We all know that the Android tsunami is upon us, but I still find it amazing just how many devices are 
being released by manufacturers.

Today, LG announced that it will launch not 5, not 10, but 20 Android handsets by the end of this year.
They didn't stipulate which markets would get how many, or even outline any new phones in the works,
but we can expect an Android flood from Korea.

Clearly, LG want to up their position as the third biggest handset maker in the world (number 2 in the US).
At least their not doing it by creating their own wacko OS.

EVO 4G vs iPhone 4


iPhone vs EVO
Just like oil and water, these two just don't mix. You can almost feel the tension through your screen as you look @ that image can't you? I thought so.
Anyway, the folks over engadget have been all over WWDC and the iPhone 4 launch and they have a comparison of the two flagship phones:
iPhone vs EVO
As you can see, the specs are pretty close, with the iPhone having the edge when it comes to the screen. Once you get to the camera(s) the EVO takes back the title. Now the video chat...
As we've already discussed the iPhone only supports video chat while connected via wifi, that means no 3G calls for you! So in that regard, the nod would have to go to the EVO 4G, with its ability to make calls via not only wifi, but 3G and 4G as well. But let's dig a little deeper
During his speech, Steve Jobs didn't mention anything about the quality or resolution while using Face Time, but considering the front facing camera is VGA, that would lead you to believe that it's streaming at 640x480, which is the same resolution that the free Qik service uses. However, should you choose to pay $5 a month, you can upgrade your Qik service and video call at higher resolutions.

The one thing I'm truly interested in is to see how Apple's A4 processor stacks up against the choices from Qualcomm and ARM.

Once engadget updates their comparison, we'll be sure to give you the updates.

Motorola announces keyboardless Droid/Milestone: the XT720


Motorola Milestone XT720
Motorola today announced their latest Android offering, the Milestone XT270, which is basically a Milestone/Droid with an updated camera, HDMI out, and no QWERTY keyboard.
The removal of the keyboard makes the device a perfectly pocketable 10.9mm thick (down from 13.7mm on the original Milestone).
The camera is an 8MP auto-focus beauty complete with xenon flash, and the ability to record 720p video.
The device runs Android 2.1, but doesn't include MOTOBLUR, as Motorola are targeting the device at mobile enthusiasts (who, apparently, don't want it). The upside of this is that it may mean faster Android updates in the future. May.
Other specs include a 3.7 inch 480 x 854 display, 512MB on-board storage + 256MB RAM, 8GB MicroSD Card, FM Radio, Bluetooth, WiFi b/g, GPS, all powered by a 720MHz Cortex A8 processor, disappointingly underclocked to 550MHz. Worst of all, the Korean version — the MOTOROI — is running at the full 720MHz. Bummer.
On the upside, the device has an HDMI type-D port on it, and — unlike the EVO — includes the connector cable in the box.
The XT720 is scheduled to be released in the EU/UK next month, with no other details on price or worldwide release available at this time.
SlashGear have a hands-on gallery, as well as a video, which I've embedded for you, below. The press release is available here.
