Not long after Motorola Alexander unveiled its weird face, another high-end Moto handset with a "conqueror" name appeared and, this time, it's the Motorola Atila (appeared on BGR). The reference to Attila the Hun, the Hungarian king in the 5th century, is more than obvious, so Motorola seems to be seriously preparing itself for re-conquering the mobile market.

Of course, in order to do so, the American manufacturer will need good-looking and well-featured new handsets. And if we look at Motorola Atila, we discover exactly a device of this kind.

The design of Atila is somehow a mix between BlackBerry Bold, LG Dare and Apple's iPhone, so the result could have only been a nice handset.

Like the Alexander, Motorola Atila will run on Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional. Unlike it, the Atila does not have a hardware QWERTY keyboard, being a touch-only Pocket PC.

The first good thing about the new Motorola is that it brings quad-band GSM connectivity (850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz) with GPRS and EDGE, and tri-band HSPA connectivity (850 / 1900 / 2100 MHz). This makes the device capable of working about anywhere in the world, as long as there's at least a GSM network deployed. Moreover, the 3G connectivity should allow the handset to achieve data transfers of up to 7.2 Mbps in downlink or up to 1.8 Mbps in uplink.

The other features of Motorola Atila include: a 2.8 inch TFT touchscreen display with 240 x 320 pixels, Wi-Fi, a Qualcomm 7201A chipset and a 1130 mAh battery of unknown (yet) performances. No word yet about the existence or non-existence of GPS. Also, there are no details about the camera packed in Motorola Atila, but considering the fact that Motorola Alexander's might be an 8 Megapixel, we should expect it to be a good one, too.

Motorola Atila is said to measure 109 x 60 x 13.8 millimeters (4.29 x 2.36 x 0.54 inches); hence, it's about 10 millimeters smaller than the iPhone 3G when it comes to height.

For the time being, we can't say when Motorola fully unveils the new Atila, but we hope we won't have to wait too much.
