The Motorola Cliq was one of Moto’s first “re-emerging” devices that helped drag them back from the edge of bankruptcy. Though even when it was released many months ago, the included Android 1.5 operating system was sorely outdated. Fast forward to late 2010 and that fact becomes even more apparent. Though hope is finally here. The Android 2.1 (Eclair) update (Sorry folks…no 2.2) is finally here. There’s only one caveat though — the...
It almost seems like a new Android device is caught, spied, or released on a weekly, if not daily basis. Being an Android junkie myself, I certainly have no problem with this. Especially considering a new, Android slider is in the making… While I’m content with my DROID, the onslaught of much beefier hardware since November has really had me hoping for “the next great slider”.

Motorola CLIQ users have now had a good 12 hours to wring their freshly updated CLIQ’s to the ends of their ropes. I have to say that it’s an extremely good thing that Motorola pushed out the update they did — fixing numerous bugs and tweaking app/memory/processor management as to get a grip on that abysmal battery life. But I’m sure like me, many of you are disappointed that you’re still stuck with Android 1.5 and weren’t upgraded to...
