Motorola Alexander cancelled

March 23, 2009 | By Surur

It should come as no surprise really, given Moto’s recent distancing themselves from Windows Mobile, but Digitimes today claims the Motorola Alexander, an 8 Megapixel Windows Mobile Standard Smartphone with NVidia graphics has been cancelled. The vertical slider would have been paired with the Motorola Atilla or the A3100. That device has in fact now been released, but only to tertiary markets and will not see wide distribution.

It remains to be seen if Motorola can achieve better success with its Android strategy for 2009, but we expect to see them back in full force with the release of Windows Mobile 7 in 2010.

New Motorola Atilla and Alexander pictures

Some new pictures of Motorola’s new Windows Mobile smartphones have emerged from Chinese cellphone forum it168.com. The Motorola Alexander (left and right) is Windows Mobile Standard with a sliding keyboard, while the Motorola Atilla (center) is Windows Mobile Professional with obviously a touch screen.

The pictures mainly go to confirm the devices are pretty near release, and if it is Q1 2009 as rumoured earlier today, its likely to be January rather than March.

The Boy Genius Report has dug up more details on the Motorola Alexander. The vertical slider, which will famously feature an 8 megapixel camera, runs Windows Mobile Standard and uses an NVIDIA graphics accelerator for 3D graphics and also features AGPS.

BGR says the device is expected around the end of the year in the Q4 period, possibly around October.
