Motorola CEO Sanjay Jha confirmed on the cell phone maker’s fourth-quarter earnings call that two of Motorola’s highly anticipated upcoming devices will launch next month. AT&T’s upcoming convertible superphone, the Motorola ATRIX 4G, and Verizon Wireless’ monster tablet, the Motorola XOOM, both look set for a launch at the end of February. The ATRIX 4G features a dual-core Tegra 2 processor, a 4.3-inch 540 x 960-pixel display and an option laptop dock that converts the device into a full-size smartbook. The XOOM is a Honeycomb tablet that sports a 10-1 inch display, full HD support and the same dual-core Tegra 2 processor as the ATRIX. Jha seemed more secure in the ATRIX 4G’s launch timeframe during the question and answer session at the end of the call, saying that the XOOM might be pushed back slightly to March. But Jha also reaffirmed that the 4G LTE-enabled Motorola DROID BIONIC and the LTE hardware upgrade for the Motorola XOOM are both on track to launch at the end of the second quarter.

    Excited about the Xoom but haven’t heard when the wifi only version will be available. Also the Bionic seemed like the phone for me after CES but that June release date is way out there. Who knows what could be announced between now and then (I’ll dream of a some company coming to their senses and announcing a tegra-2 4.3″ Vanilla Android).

    Guess they are advertising these things everywhere? I’ve had several people ask to see the “new moto tegra phone” in the past few weeks.

    Motorola has given a false guideline for this year. They are NOT counting on the fact that Apple’s share of the market will go down to 0 and that Android will attain a market share of 100%. We don’t need competition as long as Google’s the company dominating.

      You aren’t doing a very good job filling Norm’s large shoes while he is taking time off to get rehabilitated.

        Hey Walt! I appreciate the constructive criticism. As a bonafide member of the goofan (aka apple hater) nation and different from apple fanboys or apple in general we always strive to improve.

    Has VZW figured out when they’re going to enable the LTE chipset inside the XOOM? From what I hear battery life completely suckz @zz for LTE phones. They have to make the batteries massive <1950 mAh thus the massive phones.

      Of course when I was referring to the 1950 mAh battery I was not making reference to the XOOM. Sorry.
