An iPhone-trashing footage that promotes Motorola’s Droid phone has showed on the internet, and it teases with a little details about the Motorola device. But as more Motorola Droid data pops up, there’s another surprising rumor: Verizon’s testing a CDMA iPhone.

Now you may consider issue with some of those supposed plus points (on-screen keyboards seem to work perfectly well for many iPhone users, and other Android phones that have them too, and removable batteries aren’t proving much of an issue) but the 5 MP camera is a boon, as is low-light shooting.

BGR has been able to have a test on a prototype Motorola Droid, and it seems Motorola’s really got some serious hardware on its hands. The Motorola Droid phone operate on a TI Omap3430 processor, making it “the fastest Android” phone they’ve seen. It’s also skinny but has a full QWERTY slide-out, and there’s a companion charger/stand that lets the phone act as an alarm clock, weather station, and so on. According to BGR, Google was very directly involved with the development of the device, “almost dictating every move Motorola made when designing and making” it.

According to another report, Verizon’s CEO Lowell McAdam was also visiting Apple recently. And it wasn’t just for kicks -Verizon’s actually been testing out a CDMA-friendly version of Apple’s iPhone. If it’s true, this is pretty amazing news on several fronts. Firstly it suggests that AT&T’s poor technical and customer services performance has dipped low enough that Apple’s going to break the network’s exclusive grip on the iPhone in the U.S. Since U.S. cell-phone users seem so very polarized by their choice of network, this is also big news for Apple -it’ll bring millions more subscribers to the iPhone fold.
