So, what can you get these days for 2.9 million clams?  How about a prime time Super Bowl ad with the hottest start out there in a bathtub?  Motorola put together this humorous little ad to show off their new phone, the Devour.  And while this wasn’t the funniest ad, it seemed to get more water cooler chatter going on about it than all of the rest (although, the Doritos Samurai was pretty awesome).  So relish in the video after the break just in case you missed it…or want to …

Motorola has stated on their Facebook page that they would be deploying Android 2.1 to the device “this week”.  I, for one, am ecstatic about this and it makes me feel better about hopping on the Droid bandwagon mere months before the Nexus One came out.

Verizon finally announced its new phone today.  Contrary to what many have speculated this is not the Droid replacement  they thought it was, but that doesn’t make it any less of a contender.  While it may only be running Android 1.6, it does feature Motoblur and a 3.1 inch capacitive screen.  That bundled with an 8GB SD card makes this a very attractive phone indeed.
Full specs after the break.
