Motorola is getting ready to release on the market two mobile phones running under the Google Android operating system this year. The latest rumors point towards the Motorola Sholes, which should come on Verizon's airwaves, and Motorola Morrison, expected to hit T-Mobile in the fourth quarter of the year, most probably on October 21.

While it was spotted quite a while ago, the Motorola Morrison hasn't been detailed in full until now, yet it seems that the guys over at Android And Me managed to get their hands on the complete list of specifications of the phone. For what it's worth, apparently we are indeed talking about an attractive Android phone, and T-Mobile's subscribers will have a great reason to rejoice when it will become available for purchase.

The specs of Motorola Morrison show a Qualcomm MSM7201A 528 MHz processor, coupled with 256MB of RAM and 512MB of flash memory, an HVGA display that boasts a 320 x 480 pixel resolution, a 5-megapixel photo snapper with auto focus, geotagging and video recording capabilities, as well as a 3.5mm headphone jack, and stereo out.

In addition, the device is also expected to come to the market with a 3-axis accelerometer (four-way screen rotation), magnetometer, proximity and ambient light sensors, Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR and A2DP (AVRCP, GAP, HFP 1.5, HSP, SDAP, SPP profiles are also supported), USB 2.0 High Speed, micro USB connector, and Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g (WEP, WPA, 802.11i – WPA2) connectivity.

The Android-powered handset should also include GPS receiver with Assisted GPS and E-Compass, support for email protocols like POP3, IMAP4 and Exchange ActiveSync, support for QuickOffice v2 Viewer formats for email attachments, and support for GSM 850/900/1800/1900, W-CDMA 900/(1700 or 1900)/2100 bands. A microSDHC memory card is also included, with support for 32GB of additional storage space.
