Cause that would be a slightly harder Photoshop work.
I completely agree with you, I want an official note and lay my eyes on it.
So far, looks like a fake.

Motorola needs a successor to the Ming, now that EZX is "deprecated" and the A1200 is a success not only in China, but all over the world.

The specs are a mild update from the original Ming. The Wi-Fi is a welcome addition, now that we know that MOTOMAGX supports it (see http://eng.mobiset.ru/articles/text/?id=40 ), but the lack of EDGE and 3G isn't good. Motorola should launch this A1600 as a "3G+Wi-Fi Ming", its first Linux 3G phone. (Yes, I know, there won't be 3G in China for still some more time...)

Yes, the photos look like sketches, I only believe in blurry cameraphone pics. For the Chinese, if you find one of these, please take a cameraphone photo and send us

How are we supposed to open the USB port? With a knife?

Anyway, even if it was real (and I doubt it is), I wouldn't buy it because it doesn't solve most of the issues I have with the current Ming.

I found the same pictures on a Taiwanese forum, which mentions the CPU would be upgraded from ARM9 to ARM11..420HZ.
