Verizon Showing Off Droid 4 and XYBoard 4G LTE Tablets

[dgstorm]

Although there are a ton of rumors floating around the interwebs lately regarding a potentially imminent release of the Motorola Droid 4, the reality is that we don't have any real clue if it will come out next week, (as rumors suggest), or next year. Still, regardless of the rumors, Verizon was keen to show off the device a recently to some CNET editors, along with their upcoming 4G LTE XYBoard Android tablets. The names and specs of those tablets are now confirmed and lineup with earlier reports:

1.2GHz dual-core processors, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of storage, 5-megapixel rear cameras and 1.3-megapixel front-facing cameras for video chats. One will include a 10.1-inch display and the second will sport a slightly smaller 8.2-inch panel.

Also, the specs on the Droid 4 turn out to be exactly what was rumored recently: Droid RAZR styling, with a slide-out QWERTY Keyboard, 4-Inch qHD display, Android 2.3.5, a 1.2GHz dual-core processor and 4G LTE.

With Verizon showing the device off so "brazenly", it is possible that the Droid 4 really will launch next week alongside the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. Would this make a more difficult decision for some of you? Share your thoughts.

Keyboard? HECK YEAH!

Locked down, Moto-style? HECK NO!

I'm holding out for the SG III reported to be coming out early next year -- assuming it hits Verizon and nothing better with a slider keyboard comes along around the same time.
