You might recognize this Blur / Android 1.5 device as the Opus One, and you’d be right. There isn’t much to be told quite yet about this Motorola branded iDEN Android device, but with CTIA right around the corner, that will change. Normally I wouldn’t dedicate an entire article to something like this, I just think it’s exciting to see yet another Android phone make it to yet another US carrier (Nextel / Boost?). Be on the lookout for more info ASAP.

I can’t say I’m super excited about this one but Moto’s follow-up to the Cliq is AT&T’s first Android and employs a nifty method for navigating the screen called backtrack (not to mention that kooky out-facing folding QWERTY). This one hits stores on March 7th for $99.99 on contract.

I got to play with the Backflip a bit at CES and it was a nice looking device. A bump in specs would have been nice but hey, not all of them can be super phones. It’s $99, after all. Besides, AT&T has more Androids in store. As it stands, we’re looking at a 5 MP cam with 4X digital zoom and flash, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, AGPS, a 1400 mAh battery, and a 320 x 480 capacitive screen. It reportedly ships with 1.6, though the official spec page says 1.5. It is upgradable to 2.1. Video after the break:

I got to check this one out in Las Vegas last month, and I walked away from the even wishing that the phone had some better specs (it is a budget device) and wondering if that keyboard, which is on the back of the phone when not in use, would be damaged in my pocket. The backtrack feature is pretty neat – allowing you no navigate the screen without obscuring your view. Is it gimmicky, or would you love that capability? Let us know in the comments. Video after the break. Click here for the full press release.

Check out PhoneDog’s European man on the scene reporting from Barcelona on the Cliq XT, otherwise known as Quench. It ships with Swype and is without a physical QWERTY. It’s got MotoBlur on top of Android 1.5> Has pinch-to-zoom and a nice looking virtual kb, but the screen is 3.1 inches at 320 x 480. Look for it on T-Mobile next month.

Taking a page out of T-Mobile’s book (see: Catherine Zeta-Jones), Motorola has started a new ad campaign using Megan Fox as their MOTOBLUR spokesperson. Can anyone out there think of a better way to start the campaign than to put Ms. Fox in a bathtub sending out pictures via BLUR? No? Then we are on the same page. The Superbowl ad most of you have seen by now was, as I just mentioned, only the start. Hit the jump to see what else Motorola is doing and for a video of the ad.
