Owners of iPhones are more inclined to get paid applications than Android and webOS users, with an average of 1.8 applications versus 1.1 and 0.6 for the latter.

As for usage share, there is a slight drop for Apple in December, to 50 percent worldwide. The successful campaign for the Motorola Droid has boosted Android share to 21 percent and simultaneously pushed Symbian down to 19 percent. Devices like the Droid, the Cliq and Droid Eris helped a lot Android in the United States, where it has already reached 39 percent of the mobile traffic. In other countries, most share remains stable or even slightly positive for Apple, and this is happening particularly in the United Kingdom, where Apple has an impressive 79 percent usage share, while Android has only 10 percent and Symbian no more than 7 percent.

Even though more and more speculations arise regarding the launching date as being the 11th of November, nothing has been officially announced. Bringing pro arguments regarding this date is the fact that the new BlackBerry 9700 will be launched around the same time in November and, taking into consideration Motorola CLIQ it can be released by T-Mobile since its pre-sale in the end of October.
This speculation about T-Mobile releasing two new gadgets make me remember that recently there were some rumors related to American Telephone and
Telegraph carrier that it will introduce the BlackBerry 9700 model kind of in the same time interval as T-Mobile, while Canadian Rogers Communication corporation is one step ahead of the United States by launching the BlackBerry 9700 around the middle of October.

The video led me to remember my fitness classes due to the energetic music it played while presenting the various things you can do with your Motorola Cliq. Moreover, I consider that the organization could have done a better job in presenting its innovative product than just featuring a woman`s fingers toggling through the Cliq. This is a job that could be done my Thing from the Adam`s family! Just “cliq” on the video below and you will see what I am talking about!

I must say that I really do not consider this video of Motorola Cliq very informative due to the fact that all the demonstrations made in it are already known. But, you have to admit that it has a funny part. However, there are two things that remained in my mind regarding this presentation:

1) The woman appearing in the video is engaged and well considering the size of the rock on her finger. And this is just a pity since she was blessed with such beautiful hands and nails.

2) The video is open-ended allowing us only to presume what the woman is going to write in the photo`s caption. So I am asking you, what do you think she would write for the photo`s description?

The brochure from the picture presents some features of the new Motorola Cliq. The innovative handset will incorporate a 3.1-inch touchscreen with a resolution of 480×360. The connectivity is assured by GPS and a WI-Fi radio. Further rumors state that version 2.0 of Android will be embedded in the new Cliq.
